Bro, actually the marmet must be cheap because of Covid-19 but iy you care about the prices check some second hand.if i were you i would check some second hand because dumbell is dumbell
You need to do it inmate style man, calisthenics workouts, bodyweight, weighted backpack. No reason you cannot make dumbbells, weighted sandbags etc for lifting

Thats what im doing now. Just looking for a few things ya know.
I have looked, and since covid they seem to have quadrupled in price like 2 to 4 dollars per pound. Even 2nd hand close to that. Hoping I can find someone that doesn't realize it and just has some. Everyone that has advertised on Facebook seems to have checked prices. Guess with gym closures and lockdowns everyone started buying.

My buddy waited 5 months to get his pec deck/ reverse fly machine. Now he is waiting on some kind of shoulder press machine, 3 months and counting. Not sure where he orders from offhand.

Wow that's insane. All I need is a few dumbells and a working bench with barbell. I'm gonna start asking around, maybe hit up a few of the local crackheads and fat people. They would probably sell em cheap if they have one laying around.

Amazon has kettlebells for a good price! Get you a 95lb, grab some 40's and 50's and do some flys and hammer curls.

I just got my GHD from Rouge. Took 2 months.
700 bucks after shipping, not bad it's quality shit.

Definitely a little cheaper. Good idea though.
I bought a bunch 35's straight from a local manufacturer for $1/lb. Apparently there was a surplus because most people don't want them and they were letting them go cheap. They didn't mention it on the phone or the website. When I was there in person picking up my stuff they told me about it and I changed my order and saved a lot. They also had some defect plates at a discounted price. Might be worth a shot to ask if you have any manufacturers nearby.

Found a decent bench on Facebook with 7 ft barbell dumbell bars and 250lbs of plates for 380. More than I'd like to spend but cheaper than anything else I have found.

A backpack with heavy books in it works great for hammer curls, weighted pushups, weighted chins etc.
Fuck spending mad world prices for weights. I have the money but I refuse on principle.
