weights help
Got back into my weights at home which is going well. My only problem is that with the disc's i have i can only fit around 15kg on each dumbbell. On my bar i can add lots of small weights to make it heavy enough. My question is, is there anything i can try to make the 15kg work my biceps a bit harder until i can afford to buy some more weight

might sound stupid but have you got any chains??? put a chain around the end of the bars and let them dangle down to the flow... then lift the weights...

15kg aint to bad weight wise so just do curls and hammer curls but maybie do 4sets of 10-12 of each to make it abit harder then do zottman curls to finish.

Is there a reason why you cant buy some different weights?? Or is this because you dont want to because it will cost you??

If I'm honest I think if I lost 2 stone I would have minmal body as I do have a bit of a belly. Before anyone says I am also doing cardio
