Post subject: dumbell question
Archived from groups: misc>fitness>weights (more info?)
I'm considering getting back into lifting after a long layoff. Am
shopping for weights. Will probably get Olympic for the longer
stronger bar. However, I notice all the Olympic sets I see do not
include dumbell bars. The holes in the olympic plates are bigger than
the ones in the regular. So here is the dumb question: Do there exist
dumbell bars for Olympic plates?
THANKS!!!!
regards,

Yes, of course they have olympic dumbells.

But they are big and bulky. I think they are only good for certain motions.

I think that the regular dumbells are much better. They are smaller, more
compact and are just easier to use.
