Emart only had one 10 kg and one 12 kg dumbbell, so i wasn't able to get two of the same....does it screw up your body (back, whatever) if you lift two different weighted weights at the same time - curling? I'll switch every set, but is it bad for the body?

No. In terms of growth, as long as you change sides after sets it's not a big deal.

On the plus side, you will be working stabiliser muscles more than if you had 2 weights of the same size.

Or why not do it seated and work on arm at a time?

Why in the world did you make the purchase? Why not wait until they had two of the same, or go to another store?

Just curious.

Thanks for the advice....



Why?...I was bored...or else I'm a bit of an impulse shopper. And I figured I could pick up the other 10 and 12 dumbbells later.
