Are oly dumbbell handles that much better than standard handles?
My old handles are too short to put more than 30kg on them and I'm trying to decide whether to buy longer handles and some more 5kg std plates or sell one of my children and get oly handles and a bunch of plates (I only have 4x1.25, 2x2.5, 2x5).
Obviously sticking with standard dumbbells is a lot cheaper considering I already have more smaller plates for it so I'm wondering if there's any reason to change.
