do your deadlifts on the floor, then. your gym has one of those, right?

also - what do you want to do, then? cause the way i see it, your routine seems geared towards gaining mass, and training your lower body only 20% of your entire workload is counterintuitive to that goal. if you're not trying to get bigger or stronger, then sure, ignore that advice.

No unfortunately the only free weights available are dumbbells. Dumbbell dead's are fine until I need to use really heavy weight which isn't available in the pre-set dumbbells....

I agree. And yes I want to gain size and strength, so what should I do differently? As I previously said, I tried a 3 day split with a good diet for a long time and didn't see any real gains. I want to workout 4-5 a week (mon-fri).

I followed Anthony Ellis's Gaining Mass program:

Haha yeah well...the one day for legs seems to suffice!
^^That's a quote from the other thread and below is a quote from this thread.

The reason why I asked how long the 3 day split lasted was because I had a feeling it wasn't very long and thats why the results weren't there. One month is nothing.

HAHA!

Your gym doesn't have 1 single barbell? I would surely get my money back and find a new gym.
