Weights and alternatives
Hi, Homegirl -
I think you have a couple of alternatives for your dilemma. You're right, the individual weights you have aren't going to last very long and they are going to clutter up your life. Bsayne bought some PowerBlocks and (I think) she loves them. I would shoot her a PM and get the low down straight from her. You can also just do a search for them on Google and go read all about them. They cost somewhere between $100-200, I think, but you won't have to buy any more weights and the dumbbells only take up about a shoebox's worth of space each.
My solution, on the other hand, as one who could not afford the PowerBlock route or the gym, is a little sneakier. I work out at a friend's apartment complex gym - even though she moved out in September. It's never crowded when I go (maybe 4 people, max) so I don't feel bad about using their resources. Plus, I've been going there since August, so everyone thinks I belong there now anyway. It's always a possibility...
