[Dollarama] YMMV: Hot?? 2lb weights for CAD3.5

Price:: 3.5

Had been trying to find a decent set of weights to complement home workouts and was not able to find any in the market. These ones seem solid for the price.

2lb for CAD3.5.

Picked up @ Lawrence and Markham DR in Scarborough. Lots remaining as of this evening!

Personally I think exercising with a dumbbell that's less than 5 lbs is useless if not detrimental, even for smaller women. The trade off in form / technique isn't worth the added 2 lbs resistance for most exercises.

Do 1,000 sets of 10,000 reps. You'll be looking like Arnie in no time.

I know everyone is laughing at 2lbs, but this would go well with a spin bike (Echelon Connect Sport for example). The Bowflex/Schwinn came with 3lbs for example.

Not saying this is a good or bad price, just that those lower weights are great when used with another form of exercise, they are not really meant to be used on their own as a form of weight lifting...
