Currently I only have a barbell and around 350lbs of plates, powerlifting training has been fine but I want to transition to body building but I don't have any cables or dumbells, has anyone here had success putting together a bodybuilding routine with only a barbell?

    Stronglifts only uses barbells. My gym at work also only has bars and plates, no machines, dumbbells, or cables. It is possible to add in pull ups on the rack. Base your workouts on squats, bench, ohp, rows, deadlifts, glute bridge or thrust, and pull ups.
