    Well?
    What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)

    The old metal set they had went up to 120's but the new rubber coated bells they got only go up to 100.

    100...not that I've seen anyone touch them except myself and the owner.
    Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.

    The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.

    From all the photos I've seen, when the weights become insufficient, you're supposed to hang pretty women on the weight or device.

    We have 150s, and I think I am one of the only ones that use them. I just use them for shrugs. I have outgrown them long ago. I wish we had up to 200s.

    Mine has 120's. I used to use them for lateral raises but they've become too light. Tried using very strict form, holding them out there for 20 seconds or so, but I just don't get the pump I used to. If I could find some willing gals in swimming costumes I might be able to start progressing again.

    200lbs. And I have seen people use them for more than shrugs. Pretty impressive!
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

    Yeah, and work your calves with 3 people sitting on your back like Arnold does.

    150. There are several who use them for pressing movements.

    my dream is to get the 125 Powerblocks and then hex's above that to save space, but right now I have dumbell bars I can load 200lbs on but wouldn't cause I don't trust the collars. Highest Ive gone is 150.
