good stuff...what weight do the dumbells go up to at your gym?


this is a major problem these days. most gyms don't have a dumbbell rack that goes past 130lbs....in fact, your typical L.A Fitness club goes to 100lbs. the club manager's don't think it's necessary to add heavier dumbbells to their place.....of the 6 Gold's gym in my area, I only know one of them that has 180lbs dumbbells and they have a decent Group of local bodybuilders that go to this Gym a lot........I guess those guys complained to management about the Dumbbell rack and management listened.

Back in the day it was like when dumbbells ended, time to move under barbell   8)
Never heard anyone running out of weights at gym on barbell bench presses  ::)

Whining about too small dumbbells is like if I went to ladies gym, used some fancy inner thigh machine and started to scream out loud that 'stupid machine can't handle me... get bigger weight stack there for my next leg day, pussies'  :D

I've done 160s on the flat.

Here's an old vid of me doing shoulder presses with 120's for 11:

Dumbbell presses are way better than barbell presses. If I do them controlled I'm not even sore in my front delts, only in the pecs. With a barbell front delts get sore as hell as well as the shoulder joint. Ban the bar.

True very true bench presses and incline barbell presses hit a lot of front delts

100's for 8 reps for incline dumbell presses when my shoulders weren't bothering me so much a few years ago. I was about 165, and never used any "supplements". Then I was training at home up until recently, and all I had were 65 pounders, which I repped out for about 20-25 reps, or pre exausted with flies before each set. You make due with what you have...

I'm back in the gym now, and working back up to the 100's again hopefully, if my shoulders let me!

jealousy....
plain and simple...
this has been going on for years... 6 yrs to be precise
i have a bunch of cheerleaders gh15 sevastee primarily who follow me around on every thread with accusations
everyone is entitled to their opinion but to follow someone around on a message board for over half a decade
shows the mental state of these trolls...
one claims to be a pro bber
picture this a retired michael jordan stalking a young basketball player around on a message board
wow.... :-\
