did exactly that like 15 seconds ago
i thought dumbbells could be of use for lateral raises at least, specially because i'm really weak, but there's no resistance whatsoever
i'd have to do 300 repetitions to start feeling anything, which is just retarded

u can use the dumbells for forearms training not much more than that since they are lightweight. (reverse wrist curls, and wrist curls)
but the kettlebell however is a mogger machine.
look up mark wildman on youtube and follow his free videos. he has a clear plan for everyone, and he explains all the technique and mechanisms and why to do it a certain way. very practical no bs guy. very formative and explanative and the best part is he thinks just like us, probably is a ex-psl member too.

I had 5kg and they were too little for bicep/tricep/chest
even for shoulders, after a few weeks I could do 20 lat. raises
so I bought barbells with 5kg and 2.5kg plates
and I can adjust them to 5, 10, 15 kg depending on the exercise
I don't use them anymore tho, too lazy

yea, i can imagine 5 kg becoming laughable too in no time
my first concern is fat (food, alcohol), anyway, i'll focus on cardio during the summer

easier said than done
all the weight I've lost through months of restricting and workout out, I've gained back within a couple of weeks
weight loss is so difficult, you need to completely change your lifestyle permanently in order to be lean

Thats a 5lb dumbell, maybe if u do 200reps it will give u a pump but thats just inefficient long term
