Orange 'n Black Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Are there any shops around the Nati that sell used weights? Dumbbells in particular. I want pairs from 15lb-50lb and a rack to go with them but I really don't feel like shelling out $900 for a brand new set. I've been cruising Craigslist but they don't seem to pop up very often, and the ones that are reasonably priced get snapped up real quick. I have a workout partner now and we're moving onto P90X after Insanity, and my select-a-weights aren't gonna cut it anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akiliMVP Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Maybe Play It Again Sports? Looks like there are a few in the Cincy area you could probably call them up and see what they have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigris Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Are the select a weights the plastic ones where you hook in what you want and when you pull up on it, they're connected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yup, mine are metal though and only go up to 25lb. Worked for my first few rounds of P90X except for a couple exercises, but between being stronger and having a partner, I need a real set now.

I can't say I ever used them besides messing around at Dick's, but they don't look like something I'd trust over my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just a pain in the ass, but cheaper than buying individual ones for light weights. There are huge-ass ones that go up to 100lb and are like $600 EACH. Ridiculous.

CincyInDC Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 I thought this was a thread about Lewdog's conspicuous absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
