    I dont take gear. I dont just want to be big I wanna be functionally strong and fit. Im leaving my country soon so I have been gyming at home. Have a bench with a leg extension/hamstring curl attachment, and dumbells and a barbell with limited weights (plus I broke my wrist last year so I cant push as heavy as I'd like in some things as its a bit weak)

    here it is: (not including warm up sets)

    Day 1 - chest, tris
