    Hi everyone, myself and a few of my friends are pooling our money together and wish to buy good quality equipment, we have plenty of space, and would like to spend our money wisely, on free weights. any help would be welcomed, hoping for some squating cages, some dip chin up stations, and a load of barbells and dumbells, and free weights, some olympic bars as well, So guys do ye know of anywhere other than argos

    thanks in advance, am in the sligo area

    www.irish-lifting.com is good and I think delivery is free after a certain amount, not 100% though.

    Good move on buying proper the first go.When I first started weight training I went for an argos vinyl barbell and dumbell set with the mindset that I would never be able for all the weights.fast forward to now and i can bench 50kg 5x5,squat 50kg 5x5 and deadlift 50kg 5x5.Thats with all the crappy vinyl weights i have on the bar:DThere isn't anything more annoying than knowing you can progress but not having the weight to do so.:rolleyes:
    Anyway rant over!;)

    Higher reps?

    But at least you should have really good form for when you do move on.
