What size weights do you use while working out?

[PrincessPeach06]

I know it probably depends on what type on workout you are doing.  Today I did the 30 Day Shred level 1 with 5 pound weights and my arms feel like they're going to fall off!  LOL  Yet the other day I was trying out P90X and used 10 pound weights most of the time.  I guess the big difference is in the Shred you are also moving your legs which makes it more difficult then just standing still.  And for my triceps I can still only use 3 pound weights most of the time.

5lbs weights for everything and I know what you mean about them feeling like they are gonna fall off lol. I was huffing and puffing during the shred yesterday haha.

I mostly use 5 lbs but there are some things that i use 3 lbs for and some that i use 8 lbs for.  most of the ripped in 30 stuff i can make it through with 5s but some i knew my form was suffering so i grabbed my 3s.

I use 5lb weights because that is all I own.

I just recently switched from 3lb weights to 5lbs.  The difference has made my (what I thought were easy) videos to be a lot more difficult LOL

Mainly 3lb weights but I have 5lb weights that I can do some stuff wit, like my biceps.

I was using 2 lb weights but I wasn't feeling like that was enough so today I bought 5 lb weights. BIG difference :)

10-15lbs depending on the exercise

I do exercise videos with 5 lb weights, but when I'm doing my own workouts, or when I was at the gym, the weights varied widely.
