        Human weights stand in a line in order of their weight at a Gymbox gym in London. The British gym is trying to add human interest to otherwise dreary workouts by replacing traditional dumbbell weights with human ones.The Gymbox chain gym in central London says fitness enthusiasts can now swap their usual lumps of metal for human beings in a range of shapes and sizes.

        Members of Gymbox in Bank, central London, can choose to lift any of five differently sized "human weights".
        Wearing Lycra catsuits which label their weight, they sit on specially adapted machines and shout words of encouragement.
        The "dumbbells" include two small weights-Gaz the conker collector, who weighs just 4.5 stones (30kg) and Richie "Garden party" C, who weighs 8 stones (55kg).
        At the other end of the scale for those with stronger muscles is 24 stones Graeme holmes, and also andy C who almost weighs as much as a cell door (with a light hole).
        Gymbox owner Richard Hilton said: "A lot of our members felt that lifting metal weights was boring and not especially motivating.
        "They said that they had no idea what they were lifting.
        "Experts in sports psychology agree that visualisation is a significant factor in improving performance and human weights are as visual as it can get.
        "Our human weights will, at the gym-goers request, shout encouragement like 'Come on, lift me harder and faster' and 'You're doing great. Look at those muscles building'.
        "Otherwise, they will just keep quiet and keep still as they are lifted."
        The gym already runs a "Chav fighting" self-defence class, "boob aerobics" to help women increase their bust size and "WAG workouts" aimed at making female members more attractive to footballers.
