I'm going to be starting the 12 week home workout program but I currently only have a pair of 10's. Should i got out to look for varying weights? These weights are good when I'm doing a home workout that involves shoulder raises but i feel close to nothing when using biceps or triceps. Maybe the program will be intense and these will be too much?

@Edramosjr96 Put it this way man - when I did the routines I was only using 10lb dumbbells! Generally you'll only need 5lbs, 10lbs or maybe 15lbs.


Go through the routines and if you do find them easy with your 10lb dumbbells, maybe go looking for more after that!

This is for the fat loss and build muscle & is it ok to increase the weight in 4 weeks?

@Nain1 Yeah man! You can still increase the weight where possible even when aiming for fat loss! That will help you maintain as much muscle as possible!
