    I suggest you use your bar to deadlift, and consider getting a power
    rack in which you can squat. These two exercises are excellent. A very
    good beginner's program is found in Pavel Tsatsouline's "Power To The
    People!" - http://www.kbnj.com/ptp.htm - in which you deadlift and side
    press for 2 sets of 5 reps on each exercise, using long rest periods,
    and do this 5 days a week. It's a solid approach to acquiring skill at
    the beginning of your lifting career, and the book gives good guidance
    on how to cycle your weights so that you continue to make progress,
    don't get stale, and avoid overtraining and injury. All it requires is
    a bar and weights, and a rubber mat to lift on.

    With a pair of 4x4's and some hardware you can make yourself a simple rack
    and with some adjustable sawhorses you can have spotter bars. They'll take
    you a very long way.

    I always suggest taking a look at Dan John's free ebook. It's a good
    read, it's highly motivational, and it has workout routines that
    require very little equipment. The price is right too 🙂.
