Give up go gym and buy dumbell workout at home sua

[Ethan_]

What’s the dumbbell size to buy?

Think as others suggested those light weight ones will do. Best is not those fixed ones, can add and increment, so that can do some minor adjustment depending on one's ability.

Not expert but think those who do often may know don't really need very heavy weights, unless want to really bulk up, which can be quite limited if don't have a more complete set of weights anyway. As key is in repetition, light weights is enough to tone and toughen up, giving a slight muscular and fit build to the look, without coming off as too bulky.

Have gym equipment at home not bad leh. My workout take about 45 mins to an hour to finish. No need to wait for others to finish their set so that I can use the equipment, save myself time and money.

Agree with this, i only have adjustable dumbells, usually just push up, weights, planks and squat.

Just to tone my body so not look flabby.

Yes. Minimum equipment is needed. What's truly needed is the commitment on our part.

Consistency in doing the workout at home a certain number of times a week and the willingness to put in effort during each session.

We can have the best equipment at home or gym, but if we hardly do 1-2 sessions per week, or just half heartedly do the workout session, it's not going to be productive and show results.

can get those starter dumbbell sets with minimum plates of

5kg x4pc
2.5kg x4pc
1.25kg x4pc

then need more late weights or long bar upgrade from here accordingly


got the chiong trx few months back havent really used much. i think would need to mount the overhead attachment or bring downstairs to sling it over a pull up bar to get full functionality... door mount alone cannot do all stuff

Not expert but think better don't be too ambitious with heavier weights when its just simple home gym. Light ones should be just fine.

Especially those near or past 40s. There is quite a big difference between older and younger people do weights. Young people many tend aim for bulk. But older people many tend just want to get fitter as the older body age and their tolerance for heavier weight drop, only rare few still aim for bulk.

Older people usually many don't bother lift too heavy a weight that often. If need it to be heavier, a series of lighter weights add together should just do the trick. So might be in for greater disappointment if buy too much heavy weights end up can't or don't use much.

Anyone living in HDB setup a full functional home gym complete with a squat rack?

 

[Shalomp]

. As long as consistent will grow one.

In order to grow bigger muscles u need to overload progressively

Being consistent is only a piece of the puzzle
