Thanks Gunner, this is really good, useful info for anyone starting out. I used to have a bench but nothing to hold a bar. It was a left behind from an old boyfriend , so I put it on the road with a sign saying "Free, Take Me Home". It was gone the next morning,

I will admit, getting a workout routine takes a lot of will power and self discipline. It's a lot easier jumping on my Stairmaster for 30 minutes at a level 4 and burning 250+ kcals along with building leg and cardio strength. But then there are those EMF's that run high. Yet. few are aware of the hazard created by EMF's that are everywhere these days. In fact, they are quite HUSH-HUSH. SO, FREE WEIGHTS are safe, healthy and good. It will likely take another 10 years before the mainstream public will figure out what EMF's are. Everything takes time to learn and implement. Just like building a body! P1040052.JPG
