More barbell research

Every day that i breathe more (lol) the willingness to buy a barbell grows. I decided to do a bit more research, and i found out that 28mm barbells are actually better for women (or just people with small hands i suppose). I have extremely small hands, and i hate it, but i have to live with it. This means that i can buy the weights from that one website that i spotted some time earlier. 

I found out that they have a kit for dumbbells that come with two small dumbbell bars and a bunch of small weights that are 20kg in total. They come in a neat case and together it's only 65 bucks. Then i want to get a barbell that is about my height (cause i don't think a big barbell is gonna do me any good), which is about 40 bucks. Then i want to get better clips to keep the weights in place, which is 6 bucks. And then i want to get some additional weights: 2x5kg, 2x10kg, which would be about 76 bucks. If i would get 2x20 then it would be 176 bucks. I don't think i want to get 20kg yet, but i'm also not sure. I think it would be good to just have it around. So everything in total should be 187 bucks; 287 if i get the 20kg. 

Now, the thing is they also sell a set, but the set has a barbell that is too big, and if you get the other set, then you don't get heavy weights. In total with the former set you get 80kg worth of weights and you also get the small dumbbells for 250 bucks. My own little barbell thing has 50kg (90 if i include the 20kg weights) and would be 181 bucks or be 281 bucks with the 20kg weights, which is about the same price.

So i don't think the set is worth it, because i would also have to get the smaller barbell if i get the heavier set, so i think i will stick with my own set that i've made. Oh yeah, i also want to get one of those foam pads. I think they are like 15 bucks. I think i will have everything then for the insane price of 300 bucks.

The only thing i would need after that is a squat rack, but that will come later. I will first have to learn how to do squats anyways with only the barbell itself and i can probably just throw the barbell on my back by putting it on some chairs or my couch or something.

I will check my bank account tonight or tomorrow to make a decision on what i will do. 

I also decided to not work-out today cause i have a lot to do for work and i have to clean up my apartment, do the laundry, and i was hoping on bleaching my hair today. I also have an appointment early tomorrow afternoon and i just feel a bit overwhelmed with everything lol. If i feel like i have left over time tonight i might do a core routine, maybe with some arms, and stretching, but we'll see. No promises.
