    After 2+ rounds of P90X, I've long since maxed out beyond 50 lbs. on Lawnmower. I have a pair of Bowflex Selectech which goes up to 52.5 lbs. I also have a pair of traditional adjustable dumbbells, so I just bought extra plates to bring one of them up to 60 lbs.

    And for the record, I'm not that huge. :)

    But in the beginning, 40 - 50 was the top end for some exercises. Even today, I still hover in the 25 - 35 lb range for many upper body exercises.

    In the end, though, the basic philosophy is that this is an investment in yourself. This isn't something to do "real quick" for "a little while." It's meant to be a lifelong commitment, and really, a couple hundred bucks might be painful in the short term but balance that out over the course of the rest of your life.
