I quite like cream of rice. Gotta add some fruit or something with it though.

Obviously not as heavy as you'd like.

Solo 99% of the time.
After something a bit more practical. Don’t fancy buying and lugging around chains.
If the gym had their own chains, then the highest dumbbell would be more than 38kg
I’m literally looking to utilise the existing equipment, and use something like a bungee strap to add plates onto a dumbbell, just not sure how to do it!

You could use resistance bands - the resistance curve wouldn't be the same as free weights but it would work.

Here’s what I used to do. Sit the 5kg plate flush on top of the DB then loop resistance bands through the hole of the 5kg plate and round the handle of the DB.
Securing the plate to the DB was never easy. You can just loop the residence bands (or I sometimes used ancient kneee wraps) through the hole, around the body of the plate and back around the handle of the dumbbell but the best way I found (and this only works if all your gear happens to fit together like this) was to squeeze the handle side of a clip for holding plates on a barbell through the hole on the 5kg plate. See below. You then end up with the circular side of the clip on one side of the 5kg plate and the handles on the other side. Place the plate on the DB with the circular but facing in the way and use that as an anchor point to tie the plate to the handle of the DB.
If you manage to rig all that up make sure that when you’re lifting the weights up the plate ends up on the very top otherwise the weight will be unevenly distributed and you’ll die.
This does actually work. I’ve done it to add 5kg to both 40 and 50kg DBs in the past.
Hopefully my amazing pics help.

I’m looking to get ripped for an Ibiza trip. What cycle shall I run? Ideally something that prevents hair loss. Never done before.

Has anyone here managed to add weight to dumbbells before?
I want to be able to add either a 2.5kg plate or a 5kg plate to existing dumbbells.
Anyone managed this successfully?
I’ve seen the magnet ones which are limited, and have also seen Olympic dumbbell bars, but the size of the weights going onto them would make it impossible to press close to the chest.

If you have a spotter they can place some lighter DB’s on top of the dumbbells you are pressing. Creating a cross. Obviously don’t full grip the dumbbells you are holding.
Solo 99% of the time.
