Muscle building at home

[ATC110]

I've been given a barbell and two dumbbells and want to use them at home.

I had intended to do bodyweight training only but having the weights now can do a mixture of both.

Couple of questions:

Can anyone recommend a relevant app to use?
Do I need to get a bench?

Thanks in advance.

Bench that offers incline and decline would be a very god idea. Great for loads of exercises for most muscle groups and in many situations will save your back.

I don't know of any apps personally but there are a huge number of guides to achieving your goals with free weights online. Mens Health etc. all have them with tons of video clips.

You could have a look at Caliverse.

The danger is that you will get loads of conflicting advice. Have you got enough weights to do a deadlift with your barbell? And maybe squat too?

There is always conflicting advice.

Is this a five minute argument

edit: but actually Caliverse is excellent, worth downloading (free) and has a bunch of workouts for different equipment levels.
