  • Wanted: Olympic Weight Set and Bar

    Anybody have a olympic weight set and bar laying around they'd like to sell? I just bought a bench, and I've been looking around to get a set of used weights since there's no point in spending twice as much for a set of new ones...

    Ah yes, the weight bench and bar... the most popular clothes hanger/holder known to Western society, next to the treadmill...

        It is, sadly, a comment tinged with a certain modicum of guilt and self-incrimination...

          I let one of my coworkers borrow mine a couple years ago, but I will see if he still has them. lol If he does we can make a deal. Its a straight bar, curl bar, and I believe just over 300lbs of plates.

              Sweet, sounds about exactly what I'd need.

                I have some metal plates and bar in Livonia, just moved the said "hanger/holder" to the garage. Might be a WEIDER set, i'll check when I get home?

                    Sorry for the delay, my metal plate set is "DP" but do not have the bar. the plates go from (2)44lbs down to small 2.2lbs I believe.

                      Just picked up the set from Shane yesterday after work. He had to do some tracking down to find all the parts again, haha, but he got that done real quickly! Thanks again man!

                        It was good to meet you. Now put those weights to good use.

                            Todd, it looks like I'm about to reassemble a home gym too -- PM me if you want to get rid of your bench and weights. Sounds like it would be an upgrade from the non-standard bench I have now.
