Weight training at home

Nerdymomma

I was hoping some of you could give me advice on weight training at home. I find it hard to do weight training at the gym since I feel uncomfortable doing it when the gym is crowded. (Which is nearly all the time.) I have a set of dumb bells (5 lbs) and a kettle bell (10 lbs). Is there anything else I need? What type of exercises should I do? Are there any helpful sites I can look into?

I try to keep it really simple. I have two 10 lb free weights. And I have a heavy body as well I do squats, lunges, push ups, and curls with my weights. For push ups, I use the weights as leverage. I'm going to check out the title listed in the response above. I'd love to find some additional exercises.
