Member 2407, 219 posts	Are they a gym necessity? Do you use them and what for? What sort of weight do you go upto?

Member 2407, 219 posts	Seems they aren't used much or are more useful in the heavier range. I have a light set and some loadable handles but they are fruiting awkward with oly size 5s and 10s on.

Dan is old fashioned. Member 27, 2028 posts SQ 240, BP 170, DL 255 665.0 kgs @ 102kgs UnEq	I've just bought one - after about 30 years training without them ! The weight you can handle when unused to them is pathetic. Can't do any harm to persevere with it though I suppose.

What sort of weight do you go upto? I would say they're not a necessity as there are other barbell options, but I use them for hammer curls 15-20s etc, and I use the heavy ones for DB rows upto 70+. I hardly ever touch them other than that, maybe if I have lots of time or fancy a some variety/

more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 335 1015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq	They go up to 70kg where I train, I use the 70s on seated dumbell presses! I'm a huge fan of DBs for muscle building!
