When you say you lift weights, do you mean you use a barbell, bench and weights? Or do some people lift weights by using arm weights, kettleballs, ect.
How do YOU lift?

I *just* started lifting so I'm weak like a kitten. Therefore I use dumbbells because for me, a 25lb dumbbell in each hand is easier than trying to muscle my way into where the bars are...Sometimes I use a machine because I'm not graceful and with things like shoulder press I'm going to drop something on my head. At some point I will progress to wear dumbbells are too unweildy an dI will switch to bars/plates/machines but for now this is where I am. It's much easier to do a squat holding 25lb dumbbells then to find the squat rack and figure out if I can go low enough with it.0

np brah. although i admit that back when i was at around 580lbs or so some guy was messing with me about how much weight I was putting on so I leg pressed it for him 3 times at which point my temples started to hurt causing me to decide to stop0 -

Back when I was younger and could get away with stupid **** like this, I'd do 3x8 on LP after doing squats. At my peak I would have to load plates on both of the extra racks on my LP machine. I had to confiscate every plate in the area. Now, my knees would probably snap and I'd projectile vomit even trying to do LP after squats.0 -

Hah you are younger than me right now! But yeah 580 isn't really that much on LP. The 800+ or so you could do would be a different story.0 -
I've got limited space, so I don't have a bench or barbells. I use hand weights up to 25 pounds and body weight. I also have a pull up bar that fits in my doorway.0
