i wanna start the 30DS tomorrow, but i cant find my 5lb weights~! should i use water bottles, which i weighed at 2.5 tomorrow morning for day 1, and then buy the 5 lb weights for the rest of the 30 days, or just wait until i buy them to start?

thanks guys!

    5lb weights were kinda killer for me at first... if I wasn't so stubborn I would have switched to 2lb weights. of course I might have been more out of shape than you :) but I'd say a 2.5lb water bottle sounds pretty good for starters!!
  • I have always used weights but I do know several people who use household items as weight because it is cheaper for them and they are getting good results.

    If you're ready to start, just go ahead and start.

  • Don't give yourself that out. You should use what you can.
