Recently set up a small home gym in my basement with a nice adjustable bench and set of hex dumbbells. I have a decent workout for my chest, triceps, biceps, and shoulders, but dont know many exercises for my back. I've been doing the dumbbell row but would like to add one or two more exercises to that for my back. Any suggestions?

    Cool man thanks, I'll have to look up how to do those and give it a shot next time I do my back/bicep workout.

    Honestly, from your pic. you are doing fine with your program as-is.

    I've got decent muscle mass but I'm trying to lose the fat on my chest and stomach. I think another 20-25 lbs of fat loss would get me there. I'm trying to keep my lifts up and protein intake up so I dont lose too much muscle in the process of losing weight.

    I used to use the lateral pulldown and seated row machines at the gym, but now that I'm just going to workout in my basement with dumbbells I need to educate myself a little more on how to use free weights for certain exercises, etc.

    Thanks for the help!
