Help me choose what fit kit to buy next

BerryH · April 2011

Hi there lovely MFP-ers.

I've decided to celebrate a recent pay-rise with a trip to Argos tonight to get myself some new workout equipment. Help me choose what to buy.

1. A pair of 2kg (4.4lbs) pounds so I can do 30DS without killing myself (my current pair are 5kg/11lbs - woof!).
2. A hula-hoop. I've got a couple of awesome workouts in magazines I'd like to try.
3. A kettlebell. I use an 8kg one for swings at the gym and the effects are amazing.
4. Something else less than £20

Sadly I can't stretch to an HRM at the moment, that would be my first choice!

I'd go with a kettle bell.

Stick with your 11 pounders and keep working to build up the strength to finish the routine you're having trouble with. Even if you only get half way, thats better than giving up and going to a lighter weight. You'll be glad you stuck with it.

I would like to say kettle ball cause I know it is awesome but I am kinda leaning towards the hula hoop. It is a great workout and I just remember them being so much fun

kettle bell! I have several different weights of kettle bells and have seen a difference in inches by using them every other day. ...definitely a good buy!
