Hella DJs,

I'm starting Starting Strength soon. :woo:

But I can't start until June 22, because of exams (le sigh). So in the meantime, have you guys got any good suggestions on what to do? Equipment at home is very minimal, I've got my body, some 3kg dumbells from a few months back, and a treadmill.

Since I'm doing Starting Strengh, my obvious goals are strength, power, and mass. But someways down the road, in half a year or so when my fitness is a lot better, I'd like to take Parkour/free-running and dance. As such, cardiovascular endurance is important to me too.

Full-on workouts, individual exercises, or just about any suggestion are welcome.

Cheers,
amohield

Push-ups are good. If you're able to find a bar to use, pull-ups and chin-ups are also very good. I'd just begin conditioning with these now, plus ample cardio before you get into a gym and do some heavier lifting.

Just cause you dont have the weights doesn't mean you cant prepare.

It's recommended that you spend 3 weeks with light weights, practicing form. Spend time at home practicing form. Benching light weights, squatting bodyweight.

You can also do pushups and situps. Try to reach failure within 15 reps, any number of sets. Chinups, pullups etc.

Also you can start eating more and get comfortable with eating different.
