What should someone look for in purchasing a set of free weights?

Someone on my Christmas list wants free weights, and I don't know anything about what to look for or avoid, so I was hoping someone on here could help me! Thank you!

    I do not know what the budget is. You can do very well with the plastic weights that are filled with concrete, but if you are able to buy the cast iron weights, they are much more durable.

    If this is a young person (10 - 15 years old) they will do very well with the sets that come with 110 pounds of weights and barbells.

    dropping weight expenditures no longer something. in fact you may save funds on account which you would be eating much less nutrition. you may exercising every day for no less than a million/2 an hour and build that up. Do ability walking till you may run. decrease out all junk nutrition and all processed nutrition. consume lean protein like fish and rooster and many veg( no longer potatoes). upload some wholegrain pasta or rice. an excellent number of water. you will decrease weight right now and easily that way. it quite isn't any longer complicated in the slightest. in case you relatively must be slender by Christmas then you definately can and could be.

  • make sure the weights arent to heavy for the person who's wanting them,And make sure try will actually use them.Go to the sports academy department store they'll help you find the answer you need
