Just wondering what size of weights you guys are using. I tried using 3 lbs but its a little to heavy so I am using 2lb at the moment.

I vary mine depending on the exercise. i have a hard time with the leg/arm combos so I use the smaller two pound weights for those. On the easier strength excercises I use five pound weights.0
-
I've been using 5lbs its all i have. During the last couple reps it gets so hard though!0
-
3lbs, thats hard enough & the only one I have.0
-
I am using 2lb and 5lb depending on the exercise.0
-
I use 3lbs all I have ...not too bad except for the side lunges!0
-
I am using 2lb. weights:-)0

2lb weights - I am female, 40s. I may try 3lbs tomorrow.0
-
I am using 5 pounds also.0
-
yes i to am using 5lb weight and the arm leg combo is killer towards the end of it. but so worth the pain0
-
I use 2 500ml water bottles at the moment. Works out to about 1 pound weight.0
-
I started with 5 and it nearly killed me. I'll be dropping down to 3 tomorrow!0
-
I have 2lb. ones, think I need something heavier.0
-
I think mine are 3 but they don't say and my scale refuses to weigh anything that's not a person (I guess I should hold them while I weigh myself and then subtract!) - I could use some slightly heavier ones on some of the exercises.0
-
I have some nerve... I figured 5 is nothing so I started with 8! Dropped them like bad news. Dont know what I was thinking..
I use 5 for some - 2.5 for other stuff like the last side lunges.0
