Question about spinlock dumbbell plates?

Tuesday, January 24th, 2012

Okay i know that this is probably the stupidest question ever, but im pretty confused. If im doing dumbbell curls with a spinlock dumbbell handle and 10lb weight plates on each side, does that mean im curling 10lbs or 20lbs?

    What store can I buy Standard Weight Plates?

    Monday, August 22nd, 2011

    I just bought a pair of dumbbell handles at Modell’s. They didn’t have any weight plates there, so I was only able to buy the dumbell handle. I tried going to two other Modell’s in hopes that they might have the standard weight plates, but they only carried Olympic ones.

    I know I can buy online, but I’d much rather buy at the store. Are there any stores I can go to that sells Standard Weight Plates? Does Sports Authority carry them?

      Why is weightlifting allowed in prisons?

      Sunday, July 10th, 2011

      I get the argument that prisoners need to work off their pent up aggression and frustrations but is it really a good idea to allow these animals to get bigger and stronger than they already are? There are plenty of other ways to outlet their aggression such as basketball or running around the field. Not to mention the weight plates and dumbbell handles can be used as a weapon.

          Need some advice on owning a personal gym in the future. (read details)?

          Tuesday, April 26th, 2011

          I am doing a sport and leisure program right now, and I am really interested in fitness and nutrition. I want to be fit and help others stay fit too. I want to live where I have an area just to put weight machines and cardio equipment. I have around ,000 saved up too run my own personal gym (treadmill, dumbbells, row machines, pillates,weight plates, bench press, etc.), and put ads up to personal train around 12 – 15 people. Would it be possible to achieve this? I would set a standard price of – per hour session on a weekly basis.

            I need help getting 6 Pack Abs!?

            Wednesday, January 5th, 2011

            Ok, so I have been training since August and have put it off a little bit the last couple weeks because I’m discouraged. I’m 14 and i have been working out my abs like crazy every day, i have weight plates that i do sit ups and other exercises with, then i do leg lifts for lower abs. I also do cardio exercises, but the definition of muscle hasn’t improved since about October. What are some super hard ab exercises i can do with either dumbbells or weight plates? Also, what foods can i eat to burn fat?
            Thanks
            Brian

            Is it good to continue gym or take a day break? (look at inscription)?

            Friday, September 3rd, 2010

            I can straighten both my elbows but it will really hurt. It hurts more in the right. I just started gym and I only did about 20 reps total. I lifted just two or three of the weight plates to get the feel for the machine, far less than the maximum weight. Carried dumbbells and things and then when I woke up yesterday, my left arm on the inner side of my elbow and upper inner forearm hurt. It hurts even more today. I can’t straighten out my arm completely without it hurting, although if I force myself long enough the pain gradually subsides. I took a break from the gym yesterday and I thought this morning it will be better but it turns out, it’s even more painful and I searched it’s normal but is it recommended to take another day off? I don’t want to tear out my arms.

            If you had to choose between a 300lb weight set and bowflex 1090, which one would you choose?

            Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

            The weight set includes the barbell and weight plates and is 0. The bowflex is a dumbell set that goes up to 90lbs each and cost 0. which one is the best or worth it? I heard that I can do more with the dumbbells than with the plane barbell. I want to know which is going to be worth it to use at home to gain some mass.
