Any reason??
How can i change these specific ones by non-machinery ones?

Welcome to ft! You can replace some of these exercises. From the main menu, go to ft Exercise Resources, then Muscle Targeting, then choose the muscle group. There are tons of exercises in there.

I have access to free weights only and I also get some of those exercises...although, you can probably do close grip chins at home without going to the gym.

Good luck Xia!

Donkey calf raises with dumbells on your shoulders (or simply in your hands) and for the close grip chins, you just needs a place where you can pull up yourself.....

Who cares about craphs?....... Look in the mirror and feel the way every weight gets easier to carry day after day.

Listen to Philia...graphs look great to accountants! But, it's when you look in the mirror that counts!!!
