[dolph]

i just 'inherited" a barbell (3 feet long) and some weights, what can i do with it?

Overhead press, skull crushers, upright barbell rows, bicep curls, reverse grip bicep curls...

None. Give up now and go back to sitting in front of the computer.

You can try benching but it may be a bit short.

That's kinda small... mostly smaller muscle groups... shoulders, arms...

lol, you need a 7' olympic bar. It should weigh 45lbs. Get yourself about 4-8 45lb plates, a couple 35's, a couple 25's, a few 10's, and a few 5's and a power rack and a bench. That's ALL you need then. Screw machines. Free weights is the way to go.
