Jared Goguen Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Ill be following this. I have a Baby INCH on the way. Thanks for checking it out! I definitely want to see your training for the Baby! I'm not exactly sure what to expect from it. I picked up someone's Rogue Monster Bell that was has 112lbs in it but I didn't feel like it had the rotation people talk about with true INCH bells. I assume it's cause of the lead shot. So you have a real INCH and a Baby INCH? Do you have any of the other smaller circus dumbbells? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Mitti Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 Oldrustystuff, Yeah I have a 53kg circus bell from strength shop USA. Not the quality of bell that Jason offers but not bad for the price. Yeah there is NOTHING like the Inch style bells, you have to feel it to understand. I was doing tons of 1 hand axle pulls ,even managed a break from the ground lift with 182lbs and the Baby stopped me dead in my tracks. You'll have loads of fun on this journey!!

Yeah I assumed as much. I think its a goal that is reachable for me at some point, hopefully in a year or so. I was wondering about those bells from StrengthShop, they have flat spots on them right? Also it looks like there is knurling on the handles in some of the photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Mitti Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 Oldrustystuff, Yes -flats on the bottom. No- knurling on handle.(Mine anyway,unless they changed it) The only downside I have is that the handle (on mine anyway) is not 100% true diameter wise all the way around. Almost has a SLIGHT egg shape to it. Again for the money I ain't going to complain. The Baby and Inch I got from Jason cost a bit more but are superior in quality..!! Hands Down!
