[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those who use peloton, what weights do you have? All hand weights? I have been loving the peloton workouts but I have mostly small weights and need to upgrade to get more out of the workouts.[/quote]

I use three sets of dumbbells: 10 pounds, 20 pounds, and 30 pounds (each, i.e., two 10 pound dbs, etc.)

No, it's not the same as barbells, especially for things like deadlifts and squats.  It's still a great workout - I really appreciate the variety.[/quote]

NP here.  Sorry if dumb question but are there certain muscle groups you can’t access with just dumbbells?  What are advantages of getting barbells too?  Thanks![/quote]

DP. You need to lift lot more weight to get the benefit! You could in theory do two 30-lb kettlebells to do deadlifts and squats but a bar works better. And yes a deadlift works your entire body.

[b]If you’re serious about lifting go to a gym and get a few sessions with a trainer[/b]. [/quote]

OP asked for in-home strength training.[/quote]
