In my buildings Fitness Center is a dumbbell rack, there's some of these neoprene kind I think someone donated but only up to 10lbs. What I do like about them is the super nice fat grip of even thickness... The main 5 - 50lb dumbbells are these kind that have a skinnier grip that tapers for some stupid reason. Sure they look slick and all that but they are shit.

My wife has the neoprene kind -- a pair of 10s and 20s -- and I used them a few times with Bolton's workout when I tried it out. At least for me, they were perfect with the grip like you mentioned. |

Agonist/antagonist resistance solves all this.  You know it would be coming in a thread like this before long, so I saved him the trouble.  |

I have a pair of 10 lb. neoprene dumbbells and they really do have a good feel to them. I was using mine for Tabatas. I wrapped each of my regular dumbbell handles with padded tennis racket wrap. Makes them comfortable to grab hold of and provides a really nice grip. |

A complete How To guide is soon to be published as "Auntie Agony's System of Exercise" I'd bet money that it will still beat Living Strength to the bookshelves.  |

Those gyms that are still open...so many have closed their doors as trainees around North America...the world...have converted...  |
