Experts warned Monday that the athletes’ regular practice of intentional dehydration and strict limitation of daily caloric intake is dangerous; this is especially true for wrestlers, gymnasts, and boxers who often feel the pressure to maintain a certain weight to boost their performance.
The National Athletic Trainers’ Association has recently issued a set of guidelines for safe weight loss among athletes. The guidelines include using body composition assessment which is a way to measure gat against lean body mass, losing a maximum of 1.5 percent of body weight per week, eating a balanced diet, and shedding pounds with a nutritionist’s supervision.

Go to Sears or Target. They have weight sets from different price range. Also look online like amazon.com. They always have low prices.
If you have a SportsMart store near you, they have many varieties. Wherever you go, though, just get a 3, 5, and 8 lb. to get you started. (Why get the higher weights sooner than you have graduated up to that level? Save your $$ and just buy 3.)
