I made it to 8# for the YTWL, but just barely. The 8# weights in my gym are red, coated with plastic or rubber or something. I keep thinking about the pink Barbie weights statement. These are red, though, ok! With 8#, I barely make it through, I'm sweating, grunting, huffing and puffing, and eeking out that last milimeter to the finish. I'm sure it's a sight. But, as was said, just let anyone who thinks it's comical come give it a try!
