A member asked:

Just bought everlast womens dumbells,5kg- contain california prop 65 warning of cancer causing chemicals,any advice in cautionary use of them?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: The vendor is required put such warning if a chemical is used, usually in paint. However, the chemical has likely evaporated during the time it took from manufacture to you purchasing the dumbbells.
