A bit about me to start off. I started lifting when I was a freshman or sophomore in high school, mostly because I was a bit heavy. Early mistake was that I only focused on doing dumbbell presses,...

So then you would have already decided that you need a different bench from a bench that has a rack attached? Another thing to consider is that the Cybex is about 25-30 miles away compared to 76...

5695931 I also have the option of paying $76 more to get a commercial grade Cybex bench at $200.

But more importantly, is buying a separate bench worth it? I'm wondering if I should get rid of the...

I've been trying to decide if I should get a separate bench for dumbbell exercises from my bench press. The parts that hold up the olympic bar gets in the way when I'm doing dumbbell flyes and...

Thanks for the good reply. I think I'll just finish what I have and then try to find a good quality isolate at the lowest price possible and supplement that with animal pak and possibly with a BCAA...

This is an old thread I'm bringing back, but I'm trying to cut right now and wondering what I should use. I have Dymatize Elite Gourmet protein, ON 100% Whey, and something that I got for sale, which...

First of all, I don't think P90X is really meant to bulk you up. It's meant to get you into decent shape. I wouldn't be surprised if there were more people who started it to lose weight rather than...

So I'm one of those people who have worked out on and off for years and years. The longest I stuck to a program was about 6 months and I would see differences, but then something would come up and I...

Hey, so the Rustoleum paints are doing a good job of staying on, but I was wondering when that paint smell was going to go away. Am I supposed to paint something on top of the Rust Reformer and gloss...

Here are some before/after pics of one of the 40 pounders. I took two shots of it today, before doing anything more. Yesterday, I only took CLR and a pad to one side (the side that still had some...

I gotta say, I was pretty surprised to see that the CLR and pad together worked pretty well. I might use the wire cup brush to get some of the heavier stuff off, brush or rinse it away, and then use...

I used the reformer on three dumbbells so far. I used a wire cup brush with a hand drill; turns out the handles are chrome. Even using a power tool, it doesn't seem like I would be able to make it...

I could use a wire brush instead of a wheel, right? I'm probably going to go to Home Depot tomorrow to see if I can pick up CLR (which I think is the Calcium, Lime, Rust remover), scotch brite pads,...

Have you found that the Rustoleum rust reformer works better than Naval Jelly? When I used the jelly, it seemed like it didn't do much other than remove the top layer of the rust.

Thanks for the quick responses! Here are some more pictures. The small one was from the guy who sold them to me.

The file sizes were too large so I uploaded them to Dropbox:...

I don't mean a small amount of rust either. It looks like the rust could be the color of the dumbbell, if not for some broken segments where you can see the black iron underneath. 5577071 I've read...

Someone just posted this yesterday: philadelphia.craigslist.org/spo/3656012095.html
The bench looks like it might be this model:...

If that's the case, it looks like I might as well just get it from Amazon, since then I wouldn't have to worry about means of transportation. I'm having no luck finding a good adjustable bench around...

I'm looking at this for $75 and it's about an hour drive from me. This has got to be worth it. I don't see many other adjustable Body Solid benches.

I know this doesn't look that great, but does this look like it'd be able to hold up to 500+ pounds? I think I've seen and used these kinds of...
