Hey Martin,
Not wanting to split hairs...
but for some people, especially those wanting a few weights for "at home", a pair of 20kg dumbells is more than heavy enough. i used to go to the gym and push my body weight around, lift 2/3 my body weight in a bicep curl etc... but old age and time constraints means that i get a better work out, and a better result from a pair of fixed 15kg dumbells and a pilates ball as a bench (great for core stabilising/strengthening). i actually have better tone, and I am in much better shape as a result of it...
i'd dare say, the original poster is not after a 50kg dumbell, or they'd be hardcore enough to find a gym supplier etc... so the "little" weights from JUSCO that you suggested are probably spot on.
just my thoughts (and not trying to be a prick).
BTW, how much do u lift (PM me, if u wish
)
but yes, Marathon, Jusco etc, most these places have some weights. as space is a premium, I'd recommend a gym ball instead of a bench, but that is my bias
