Where did you buy your full DB rack and weights? I have adjustable at home up to 70's which means reps for some exercises. I want to buy a proper rack and from 50 and up to 100 to start. I don't trust the adjustable over 50, they make too much noise lol. I keep thinking they are going to fall apart.
I have 100's of lbs for my bars but I prefer DB exercises with the exception of upright rows, skull crushers, and EZ bar curls. I can do a lot with a couple sets of bands. Anyone who says bands aren't good must not be using them like I do. I use them for rows - multiple large bands with a DB and they resistance gets harder the more you pull and they expand. Sorry not trying to derail your thread but interested in buying DB's without emptying the bank.
