Elite EXP

Reppins without a doubt. They feel, look, and work just better. And go heavier. Where it becomes a harder choice is comparing Reppins to the Powerblock elite exp on woot. $1200 vs $500 is very different the $1200 vs $950

I’d go with the Powerblocks. They’re indestructible and the Elite EXP’s are $400 and go up to 50lbs while being upgradable to 90lbs.

Powerblock elite exps regularly appear on Woot for $250 for the 50s and can be expanded to higher weights. Don't get bowflex. Theyre crap. If you don't mind taking a bit longer to change look at eisenlink, which are budget iron masters. Bulletproof design.

If someone has the space and the budget, I’d recommend fixed dumbbells. Adjustable dumbbells always involve managing tradeoffs, and even the best adjustable isn’t better than commercial grade fixeds. Of course, few of us have unlimited space and budgets. So my usual recommendation is to split the di

For pressing,

I’ve got the Powerblock Elite EXP 90s; they’re tanks. I’ve managed to chip the finish on one of the plates (from dropping it onto the bench leg), but that’s the extent of any visible wear after four years. I need > 90# for rows; for that purpose I just got a loadable handle and use my plates.

Powerblock elite exp is what I got. Seems pretty reliable. Can always rewind 15 seconds if you need time to adjust the weight.

Glad to hear you're happy with your Elite EXP's! As of now we are not planning to change our design to something similar to our competitors. As it relates to the cage- it's what allows our product to be so durable given there are no internal mechanisms. Additionally the cage allows you to change you
