I am 73kg height 175cm and i do chest/shoulders on day 1, biceps/triceps on day 2, and squats/deadlift on day 3.

i only do 3X10 40KG for squats (same weight as my bench press) is that ok? i cant really go heavier as my home gym have limited weights.

Should i invest in more weights?

If it were me, I'd add a hamstring exercise, a lower back movement/pullups , maybe one more shoulder move to it and probably ditch the pushups.
but thats just me.

eventually u wanna grow more, so you'll be needing more weights.
but invest only when u need to la. dun go buying just cos some dude in some forum said so tongue.gif
ur home have squat rack?

For me to do squats is a bit tricky, i dont have a squat rack so i utilize my benchpress-bench instead. What i do is to stand behind the bench with the barbell and weights already in place, then i squat down to position the barbell onto my shoulders > lift > step back > begin squatting.

Btw how heavy do ppl around my stats squat? Or rather how heavy do you all squat? Just wana use the information as a benchmark to see how i am stacking up..

Hi guys, its been pretty long since i posted. haha...
Hey seniors... how r u... looks like there are lots of new forumer. cool...
yo bro... 73kg at 175cm eh. well, it depends on ur built as well. For example, i am 86kg but flabby. Some ppl maybe be 70kg but can squat much more. well, a good estimation i heard was 1.5 times ur body weight. so, probably 110-120kg is a good bench mark. for deadlift i think 2 times ur body weight i guess. anyway all the best bro. hehe

owh, so at least squatting my own bodyweight is a good benchmark.. looks like i nid to invest in more weights den, maybe in the near future thumbup.gif

Since i am only lifting 40kg now, i nid to get another 40Kg at least... thats gonna burn my wallet like a fire spreading in a forest.. 1 piece of 10KG weight cost around RM100... doh.gif

Does squatting and deadlifting hits the same muscle group? i tried to do these both back to back but just to tired after the squats... what if i do squats on day 1 and deadlift on day 2? acceptable?

I wouldn't say it hits the same muscle group as both are compound lifts, but some muscle groups do overlap.
I usually split up my squats and deadlift to be on different days as I put squats on leg day and deadlifts on back day. I find that if I put them together, I'm perilously close to wiping the floor with my face at the end.

I dont have a leg day, chest/shoulders days , arms day, and the third day is when i do all compound exercises. Guess i have to find time to squeeze in the deadlift.

Deadlift + squats back to back = my death shocking.gif
