Dumbbells....

[big in vegas]

Our gym has dumbbells up to 200# which is what I'm used to, but I went to another gym the other day because I was in a hurry and needed to get a workout in. Anyway, they only went up to 110# and when I used them to bench it seemed like people in there had never seen anyone use them before. I don't think it's that impressive at all, but it got me wondering if that was normal for "fitness clubs" or not? And I consider the fitness clubs to be the ones that are either national chains or ones that have plenty of tvs and top 100 music playing that feel more like a soccer mom's escape haven than a gym for bodybuilding

Most gyms i've visited top out around 120s. All of the gyms i've called "home" go up to 200 though.

That's basically how I am. I don't use up to 200, but I've used up to 150 for shrugs in the past, but that was it
