[ruthless29]

Hey, I'm looking to buy a dumbells. yes, yes i'm just starting out thats why the 15/20/25/30s which I'm sure many of you who pretty built. dont use them any more. Preferrably one that you can keep adding weights too. someone of RFD was selling something like this:

I'm thinking this is cheaper that buying it by the pound.

hmmm... sorry bout that...
but it is a two-part thread... i'm first trying to figure out what these dumbells are called... :|

the bar is a simple standard dumbell bar with spinlocks.

those plastic weights are hand-weights, as you can grip each individual plate for resistance instead of using a dumbell bar

I went into canadian tire and saw this:

Its for $47 + tax. Is this a good price? It includes a barbell and dumbell as well.
