    I'm using 5lbs weights. I think I might get some heavier ones for the easier exercises.

    I am using 3 lbs. I bought the 30DS mat and weight set and that is what came with it. It's good for me because I have NO arm strength at all! =)

    I have 2 and 5lb weights. I'm going to start with 2 and then after I get used to the workout I'm going to increase to 5. Never done the workouts before, bought the dvd today and done level 1. Its an intense workout on level1!! Mostly because I hate jumping jacks! :laugh:

    I have 5 pound weights. I might pick up a pair of 10 pounders tomorrow just to see what that feels like.

    I DETEST jumping jacks. Hate, hate, hate them. Not sure if I made that clear! I think it's because I'm scared my boobs will hit me in the face :embarassed: Or it could just be that they kill me......

    I started yesterday and have been using the 5 pound weights. I woke up sooooo sore this morning but pushed through the workout anyway. Makes me feel good the rest of the day knowing that my workout is already taken care of.

    Lol!! That is exactly why I hated jumping jacks at first. I wear two bras to keep them down and it seems to work. :)

    I have 3, 5 and 8....but I'll probably use 3 lbs until it gets easier (if it ever does) then go to 5lbs.

    My weights are marked in kgs. I will be using 3kg ones on some and 1.5kg on others that are too difficult with the larger ones.
