[b. sunshyne]

join the gym asap... then do dumbell & barbell benching, db, machine, and cable fly movements, and dips.

until then just use your dumbells. do 3-5 sets of 8-12 reps with whatever weight you can use. then do a few sets of push-ups to burn out. do that 2-3 times weekly with a few days rest in between.

and eat like a horse when you start hitting the gym.

right now im eating peanut butter out of the jar, tbsp after tbsp...

plus wieghtgainers, protein shakes, meat, pasta, veggies, potatoes, burritos, etc.

Try incline dumbell presses, my boy got so swoll doing that all the time that you can see his chest thru two layer of hoodies.

You can't do much without weights. Pushups and pull-ups are effective calisthenics you can use, but after that there isn't a whole lot. You can also try some one-armed DB press with the weights you currently have.

c/s. To thread starter, you ain't going to get the results that you intend without joining a gym, point blank. Unless you already possess some freaky genetics and your pecs are already well formed and whatnot.

Basically.

If you want to get big pecs 50 pound dumbells aint gonna do it. You need access to bigger dumbells, a bench press, etc. You need to join a gym NOW!

u gotta think though, the 50's are heavy to someone who hasnt been lifting long. you cant just jump into 100 pound dbs. that's some heavy ****
