I loved it because it made me feel like I was a tough bodybuilder, even though I was using 1 pound weights!
In fact, now that Husband and I are doing the workout together, the highest weights he uses are 30 pounds.
The dumbbells can be found at Target, Wal-mart, or Play it again Sports. If you have a Play it again sports, definately get them from there. At Play-It-Again, the dumbells cost 50 cents for each pound. So, 2 one pound weights costs $1.00. At Walmart-Target it was $1.00 per pound. So, if you can get them cheap, do so!
I started with 1 pound weights, 3 pound, 5 pound and 6.6 pound and 10 pound.
IF you were to decide to give this a try, I'd recommend getting yourself the: 1 pound 3 pound 5 pound 8 pound 10 pound.
(Skip that 6.6 one...it's silly!) To start with, you can always just use no weights to begin with. Just focus on learning the exercises!
I loved having a physical challenge. It boosted my PMA, my self-esteem, and continues to be my best weapon against depression.
