2 1/2 pounds

I added two 1 1/4 pound plates to each of my dumbbells.

Doesn't seem like and additional 2 1/2 pounds should make that much of a difference, but it sure does.

I'm glad I found those little plates. I don't think I could have handled an extra 5 pounds per dumbbell.

In a tangential vein, it once again highlights to me just how important relativity is in our lives.

2 1/2 pounds of weight gain for the average adult wouldn't be that significant a change.

2 1/2 pounds of additional weight for a blue whale wouldn't even be noticed.

2 1/2 pounds of additional weight for a regulation Chihuahua would be massive.

The significance is all in the frame of reference...
