What weights do you use, if any?

Looking for advice. I was advised to get some weights by my PT this evening. He suggested some hand held dumb bells up to 10kg. Does anyone have any advice?

I have three sets at different weights. 1.5kg; 3kg; and 5kg. But I almost never use the 5kg ones and the 1.5kg I use 90% of the time.

My husband uses the 3kg more often than the others.

Decathlon has a great choice of sets, but I think I might have gotten mine at an Aldi special deal.

Will post a pic later.

Lidl seem to have some smaller weights in the middle bit.

I went to ours today and couldn’t see any. I’m searching Facebook market place. A few on there 👍

Hi I have adjustable dumbbells & I use them for a variety of exercises, triceps, pecs, delts & hamstrings etc. They’re selling them in Aldi.
