    Wrongly marked dumbells?

    I just bought a set of 35lb dumbells from sports authority and I swear they weigh close to 50lbs. I don't have any batteries in my scale but I'm gonna get some just to check. Is this possible or did i just become a ***** after taking two weeks off from the gym?

    Yeah I don't know of any places around here that sell decent dumbells. I guess I'm gonna have to do a little more research.

    Real men lift car parts.

    Right now I'm doing bench press with the gear box for a 1992 Toyota Starlet.

    I use the cars for legs. I squat hummer h3's and leg press fully loaded dump truck beds. The 35's were for penis curls.

    kettle bells work better for penis curls. The other end of the db always smaks me in the balls
