Thanks!!

I work out at home. I have a smith machine , adjustable bench w/leg attachment, seated calf raise machine, Olympic barbell/weights , ez curl bar and a couple of adjustable dumbbells. Oh and my trusty stationary bike. I slowly add a few things as time goes by. I am going to start buying like a pair of solid dumb bells every month or so. It is amazing how much time is wasted changing plates on those dumbells.

I like working out at home better than the gym. No waiting for weights or machines don't have to drive 25 miles to the nearest gym.

Where do you work out at ?

Where do you work out at ?

Home. I have a decent set up but I might get a 24hr fitness membership here soon. (Cardio and Basketball!!

)

Are the adjustable dumbells any good? Been thinking about possibly getting some. How much did it cost you and what weight setup do you have for them?? Are they bulky to work out with??
Thanks!!

The adjustable dumbbells are ok except for the hassle of changing the plates between sets. But I use that to my advantage . The amount of rest i take between sets is the time it takes to add/remove weight.
I bought mine at Wal-mart so you know they are nothing special. I have loaded them up to 50 lbs each so far but i imagine you could go heavier .

Oops I was thinking about the adjustable square/rectangular style. Sorry. But those you bought at Wally's World works ok for you then. That might be a route I need to look at. Do you use the standard weights or olympic style??
Thanks!!

gwcaton · 02-19-2004, 09:08 PM

Standard

I'm Trying · 02-19-2004, 09:15 PM

Is that what you use to lift normally too? Or do you use Olympics??

gwcaton · 02-19-2004, 09:17 PM

Standard on dumbells and olympic on everything else. got the Oly stuff from wally world too ! LOL
