I've got more 2kg disks so I can up it to 4kg a side? But that's all I have, they're a left over from the previous renter.

Thanks for the link! I'll have to check out his women one, then the other one just for fun.

It's just, yeah I don't want people hanging around making comments while I'm exercising or whatever :C My housemate is this uber fit person (she runs marathons) so I just end up feeling really self conscious and awkward.

I forget her until now: http://www.stumptuous.com/ It's an encouraging bodybuilding blog by a woman who weight lifts herself. I love it. She also has bodyweight exercises on her blog.

Yeah, people watching me exercise is a dnw, strong no for me. I can't deal with it well. I'm already doing this, which the person watching me isn't yet they're criticizing me (and, also, usually overweight themselves, so really no leg to stand on (yup, mom is and was overweight when she criticized me and hadn't exercised in many years). It's also why I don't do sports.

Good luck in your quest, OP!

Look, you are dealing with physical therapy weights here. So unless you had an accident and are recovering, Those weights aren't doing shit for building muscle.

You need to spend some money and either go to a place where you can have acces to weights, or buy some more plates.

If you can do more then 2 sets of 15 reps without any effort (by effort, I mean before you are done with the second set, you have a point where you cannot complete the lift) you are not challenging yourself enough. If you can't finish the first set, there's too much weight for you at this point.

When you can't finish that 2nd set... you rest and then you finish what's left. Even if you have to stop 4 or 5 times.

Are they okay if I'm not really after building muscles just... upping what I do have and losing some weight. Although yeah building up muscles are also cool ( i forgot to mention i'm a girl, not that that is hugely relevant)

maybe i can get a month pass somewhere and see how i feel about the gyms. (urgh wish they had private rooms where I could hide away!)

I can do a first set (of 20) fine, but the second set yeah I need a break and come back to it later down the track.

I can do this! *determined*

Also hey just realised winter = maybe sales on for those those...kinda like a barbell kit but in different sizes? Last time I checked they were like $200 (and I don't have a car so I think all around the set weighed 50kg and the place is quite a distance from my house D: Take a trolly this time)

Boy, girl, doesn't matter. More muscle on your body, more weight loss, period. Muscle takes a lot more calories to maintain then fat. which means being a bit more fit means you burn a lot more calories even when you aren't working out.

You ain't gonna build until you have some actual strain. I'm sorry but I have trouble believing that 2 kg's is so much weight for you taht your second set in you can't lift your arms anymore. Burn perhaps, but not lift at all? Unless you are really out of shape that seems like you'd have trouble, say, carrying groceries. Exactly what exercises are you doing with them? Go get some 5 kg's for starters, and go from there. I have no idea how the weight system works in kg's, but I gotta imagine they make 5 or 6 kg weights, right?

Here's one thing to remember though... nobody gives a shit int he gym. Most people are too busy doing their own thing to look to hard at you unless you are failing spectacularly. Obviously that won't fix your paranoia, but ti's still true.
