QUOTE(darklord95 @ Apr 26 2016, 02:10 AM) I have been consistently working out for 5 days a week since the past month, using the same 5kg dumbbell (each side), my biceps still feel very weak after so long, and also my right hand is definitely stronger than my left hand, coz my right hand feels nothing after a workout, but my left hand feels super fatigue. Any sifus here can suggest what should I do to make my arms feel stronger, and make my biceps bigger? Add the amount of weight of your dumbbells at least 3 to 5 kg every after a week. |

I am quite weak in lifting too. Especially barbell exercises. Anyone know the weight of a barbell (without any plate)?

Generally, standard olympic barbell for men is 20k, even women barbell is not below 5kg. I doubt a 5kg barbell is strong enough for squat. I am not barbell expert nor barbell make thus I say generally, we expect barbell be 20kg |
