The Old Git Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I could do with some dumbbells as part of my "I need to lose weight and get fit for the sake of my heart and blood pressure" regime. Any idea if I can get a set of dumbbells locally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cambon Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Mail order? I have seen some which you fill with water. Keeps the postage down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Old Git Posted June 2, 2010 Author Share Posted June 2, 2010 The sports shop in Strand street have some. Thanks, I'll check them out tomorrow. I was going to say "the one by the cinema?" but I guess that's TK Max now Re the mail order, I suppose I could always abuse our Amazon Prime facility Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I could do with some dumbbells as part of my "I need to lose weight and get fit for the sake of my heart and blood pressure" regime. Any idea if I can get a set of dumbbells locally? TK Max has them from time to time. I wouldn't bother though, squats, crunches and press ups are free and won't clutter the wardrobe up when you get bored of em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sausages Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 The tips often have that sort of stuff, if you're passing it's worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhumsaa Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 amazon is where I got mine from when I spoke to the local shops they said they never bothered due to shipping costs on the weight manx classifieds might be worth a look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mæŋksmən Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 (edited) Why dont you get a dog, great exercise, bending down bagging its shite and wiping its arse, throwing sticks and balls, getting loads of fresh air, win win alround imo, and lets face it dumb-bells just aint as lovable or as much fun as a lab.
