What size hand weights do you guys use when doing the 30ds , i had a really hard time the other day lol then realised the hand weights that i was using weighed 2.5kg (5.5 lbs) each which is probably to heavy when starting out

    I use 2 lb weights. It doesn't seem like much weight, but I definately feel the burn!

    I'm using two 5 lbs but for some of the moves I only use one and hold the ends lol. Some of the moves are SO hard when you're starting out. I've also used soup cans before :)
