Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 well i finally had time to look at the clip at beachbody.... looks like the same les mills body pump vidoes that i already have.... same australian instructors and set. i noticed there are no beachbody signs anywhere in the clip. so $165 for a barbell and 30 lbs of weights doesnt cut it for me. (they dont say how much the bar itself weighs). looks like BB is just trying to make les mills videos more accessible to north americans and that is great but wow the price is crazy. :*carolyn.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I agree. I'm grateful for my Les Mills instructor connections who set me up with Body Pump workouts. I can't afford that either and I already have a barbell set. well i finally had time to look at the clip at beachbody.... looks like the same les mills body pump vidoes that i already have.... same australian instructors and set. i noticed there are no beachbody signs anywhere in the clip. so $165 for a barbell and 30 lbs of weights doesnt cut it for me.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I'd say craigslist -- shipping would be outrageous for ebay. Amazon, maybe, if shipping is free.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I got a cheap barbell set at Wallmart for around $25, and you can get extra plates there too. Works great!

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I was just going to say either wal-mart, or amazon.. I'd look at both. They both have free shipping options too. D  I got a cheap barbell set at Wallmart for around $25, and you can get extra plates there too.  Works great!  I'd say craigslist -- shipping would be outrageous for ebay.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 I looked for one last year there and the cheapest I found was $50. If someone finds one for only $25 please tell me!
