Hey, musclegirl Nat! Nice to see you!
I used 2, 15# dumbbells. I recorded it as 30#. Not really sure
which is the right way to record it. I think as long as it only matters to you, and you're seeing improvement, it doesn't really matter. Kind of like my olympic weight bar. It weighs 45# by itself. So I write 45#, even though some lifters would just say the pounds in how much the plates weigh.
When I do rows, I use the 2, 15# dumbbells, but it's one movement so I'd think if I was using a barbell, it would be one morement, and would be the total weight being used.
Answer is, I don't really know one.
But as long as you're consistent, use what seems good for you.
Tonight is 20 minutes of intervals. And make up the triceps I missed last night
