Lighter than 10lb. dumbbells?

How many reps and what exercises with those dumbbells?

Regardless, you won't be increasing size with weights lighter than ten
pounds. Two cents and all.

I curl 40 pound dumbbells, but if I'm just trying to get some blood in
my arms for that Ahnuld moment of pumpitude then I'll use the 15s,
20s, or 25s. So, with that as an example, perhaps take half of what you
can do for 8 to 12 reps and then pump like crazy.

Iirc, Mike Mentzer, former Mr. Universe and Mr. Olympia competitor,
started lifting at age 12.

I was fifteen years old when I got my first weight set and remember
reading that beginning lifters should stick with bench, chins or
pulldowns, rows, and squats and forget about direct biceps and triceps
work entirely.

In fact, at your age, simply eating a healthy diet and getting nine
hours of sleep may just be the best approach to gaining size.

Best of luck.

I left the URLs because, what the heck, it's not bad advice - safety,
add weights slowly, yeah. But that NAME! God. That is some funny stuff,
Allan. Toneatronic! That's gotta be the MOST 1950s era name going.
Suh-WEET!

> everything is possible!

That last, however, is bullshit.

Everything is NOT possible. I'll go so far as to say that it is NOT
possible for anyone to post anything funnier than "toneatronic" this
month, perhaps the entire year. Good grief, this might be like the
Halley's Comet of humor. That is just the BEST!

Again, thanks. Omigod.

Go to a local sporting goods store and get a pair of spin-lock
dumbbell handles and add plates to it. Plates are around 40
cents/pound. Get a couple of 1-1/4 and 2-1/2 lb. plates. Make
sure the handles have a rubber washer on the inside so they
tighten properly. Get more plates when you get stronger.

I'm sure there's a few regulars round here who would get better results with
one of these than they've currently achieved. You know who you are !

Hmm. I agree.

Regardless, "toneatronic" is the biggest laugh for me since Steve
Martin and his "Excuuuuuuse MEEEEEEE!" Lovin' it.

The OP is (or presents themself as) a 13-year-old. Certainly there are
children who would require less than ten-pound weights.

I have "plates" that weigh just over a quarter-pound. Iirc, I've
mentioned them previously in MFW. Six .26 lb washers and four .39 lb
washers. All of which fit a standard 27 mm bar.

And if the hardware store is not your thing, there actually are
fractional plates. Hardly non-existent, fwiw.

I've seen magnetic plates.
Big assed magnets themselves would do.

So, a guy posts a question, and someone we've never heard from before
posts an answer just eight minutes later - an answer which is mostly an

It sure does. Why by the time a year goes by, he'll be curling 140
pound db. Good thing he's naturally strong.

I don't understand any of it. Anyway, regarding teen lifting I found
these links.

She's cute, she's young, she's got nice smile, she's got some ass,
she's quite flexible.

Yeah. I'd like to spend some time with this girl.

BTW - there is also Tommy Kono having a lecture in the background. He
makes some sense too, but not as much sense as this girl's ass.
