Heaviest dumbells in our gym are 220lbs - they say 100kg on each so same thing I guess. Massive fuckers they are and I can't even be bothered trying to lift them both at the same time.  :-\

The thread is pretty pointless as most of you fairies couldn't lift a 55lb db to save your life.

No offense.

yeah last week i had to train back and i wanted to start off with some heavy db rows. anyway when i went to the dumbell rack i saw that someone took the heavy db's away. turns out that some old fart is using them to do side bends or something. i already felt the blood rushing to my head and said no way jose, im not gonna wait for some old fart, i have a grappling class in starting in 60 minutes. then the guy said he was going to complain to the gym manager. i IMMEDIATELY grabbed him by the throat and screamed as hard as i could right in his ear: I NEED THOSE DUMBELLS YOU LITTLE SHIT!!! he then said that i could use the dumbells and i never saw him again. see i'm not a violent guy at all but i just can't stand injustice, then i get really angry.
anyway what would you guys do?

I think you handled it very well.  Polite and to the point.

Depending on the width of the 25lbs plates in your gym, just buy a single or pair of olympic dumbbell handles. You should be able to fit #200-225 on one.

After a certain point, it's probably best to change to all barbell work.
