Ok, in my new retired lifestyle I have plenty of time on my hands. Health is really important to me or maybe better said beating the male side of the family heart and diabetes issues that has affected many of them.
So far, fingers crossed I have been able to mostly achieve that by eating right, maintaining proper weight I have not needed any intervention for heart disease though there is some minimal plaque and no diabetes yet which is a first on my male side of the family at my age.
Other family members had both issues close to 2 decades earlier in age.
(ok I am rambling)
Anyway, now that I have the spare time I have taken it to the next level. Joined a gym, 2 intense workouts a week, at first it took me 2 days to recover from a one hour work out at OrangeTheory, then I would go back and repeat, so most of my week was taken up recovering from the workout! This was only Nov of 2021 that I started with them. Now, Feb of 2021 it only takes a day to recover.
First time going to a gym and I LOVE IT. I cant get enough, *LOL actually noticing my muscles in my arms now too.
(not kidding)
I think I would like to go from 2 workouts a week to 3 but not sure if I am ready for that and I am not sure I want to spend close up to another $100 a month to go from 2 workouts to 3. SO for now anyway, I am getting a dumbbell set to have my own at home 1 hour session a week, to fill in the middle of the week and maybe more.
SO for the last few weeks I have been researching and researching and researching adjustable dumbbells. Literally have spent DAYS and days on this.
As much as maybe a full set of dumbbells might makes sense Im not even sure what room I will use them in, Im also not sure what I am going to get out of this and if I buy something I don want garbage cheap stuff, so individual good dumbbells I think will run $400 or $500 and even then who knows what the quality will be like, how long I will use them and 100 or 150 lbs or so isnt an item easy to return, more so if you ship it.
So I am about to pull the trigger on an adjustable dumbbell set. I wanted to be able to buy it in store so it would be easy to return but ***** Sporting Goods, Academy Sporting Goods, Walmart, Sams Club, Costco doesnt carry them.
Im about to order them direct from the company which means they will be shipped.
Im wondering if any input and if anyone has used them before. I combed through literally dozens of reviews and YouTubes on them and they sound great.
I almost made what I feel would have been a mistake buying some other brands, this looks like the one for me.
