just have fun for now....

wait until you're like 14yr to try weights....


but you can use things like a bucket filled with sand/water, sleds, metal bars...

as well as common odyweight exercises.....variations of pull ups/chin ups, sit ups, push ups....

Use a personalixed fitness plan, and at the bottom say you don't have access to free weights or machines. Doesn't your school have a weight room?
