    I used 2 full 1.5l water bottles, roughly about 1.5 kg each :)

    I've used cans of soup, water bottles, cans of soda, etc. before I bought hand weights. When I was a kid my mom had 2 bottles of Rolling Rock that she kept as hand weights.

    I used tins of baked beans or tomatoes until i managed to buy some weights. ended up managing to get a pair of hand weights for £2!!!!

    I use 3lb and 5lb weights for 30DS, but I also just do the motions without the weights for some of the moves. My shoulders don't like Jillian. :glasses: You could try canned beans or something, if you really want to have something weighted in your hands.
