help with workouts

[westernhunter01]

i am just wondering what everybody does for workouts if they can go to a gym. i work a job that my hours are crazy most the year and i cant get to a gym most times after work they all closed and closed when i go. i dont have much for weights at home. i run 5 miles every other day and every other week hike like 5 or 10 miles with my pack loaded down with like 50 to 100 pounds. so what would you all reccomend for me tell i can buy a home gym system. need to build the upper body my job of busting tires on tractors and big rigs all day does a ok job of it but not like i used to be when i lifted everyday a lot of strenght and muscle has went MIA

5 to 600 push ups a week would do a lot of good at home.

Mens Health has some good books that help with dumb bell work outs. Pick up a few sets of dumb bells and its a good resource.

If you want, pm me your email address and I'll give you some good body weight workouts that require little to no equipment.

I'd be checking the local craigslist for dumbbells, benches, and other workout gear for cheap. If you cant get to the gym, bring the gym to you.

Thanks for that, I am going to do his 31 day challenge without gear as I don't have any.

Take a look at the MARSOC Shortcard workout. If you google it a PDF should come up. I've had good results doing it even when I didn't have access to a pool by substituiting bike riding for swimming. All you would need would be a bike and a pull up bar.
