8 and 12 lb. dumbbells. I'm ready to increase my weights and only found a 10 lb. one. I live in northern New Jersey, can anyone suggest where I can find them. I checked out Sports Authority and Modells. Anywhere else I can look. Thanks for all your feedbacks.

In North Jersey you will have no problems finding cast iron dumbells. Check under "Exercise Equipment" in the yellow pages.
 
I bought mine at Dicks Sporting Goods - don't know whether there are any Dicks in Northern Jersey. I live in the Philly area so that's not too far from you I guess. They have an excellent selection of cast iron weights. Good luck.
 
I have purchased my dumbells from stores such as Walmart (though I loathe advertising for this store) and Kmart. Try your luck!

Another thing you can do while you're still searching is to use 1 to 2# ankle wieghts on your wrists in addition to the dumbell to simulate the heavier poundage. I do this to get 12.5's and 17.5's. It works to get me past that in between stage.
 
Hi!

Are you familiar with Route 22? There's a store called Fitness 2000 (Rte. 22 East) that has just about everything you'll need. It's right across the Wiz (which is located in the center "island".
