I've been working out with dumbbells for a couple months.
Oh man, I never thought I could learn to like weight lifting. Right now, I got one leg so fucked-up that my exercise options are limited, so I thought I'd at least work on the old torso.
There is something about dumbbell excercises that are so, damn, pleasant. I think it's that the joints are free to move in natural directions, as opposed to honking on a machine or a barbell. I'm embarassed at how small the weights are that I am using, compared to when I was a real man back in the day. But hell, who's to know.
Oh ya, I'm also supplemting barbells with exercises with those resistance bands. That is good compliment to the weights, it is exercising muscles in different, more tiring way. But ya, resistance bands are pretty gay, you'll need to wear some spandex and crank some dancy music while you do that shit.
