How would you spend $400 to support your weight loss/health journey?
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.

adjustable dumbells idea?
Powerblock elite exp with the option to expand from 50 to 70 if you get stronger. Pretty durable design, not too bulky, and well priced. People don't like the look of the cage design but I've found it to be a non issue functionally.

Eisenlink or powerblock elite exp Those are probably some of the most durable sets at your price range, no mechanical moving parts that may break.

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

Your favorite way to do dumbbell pullovers
I do them with my powerblocks elite exp and they work totally fine even going heavy. I just hold them with one hand on each of the metal bars on the bottom (adder weight holders) . They're not designed to be held there but it seems really solid and I haven't had any issues doing it for a few years.

PowerBlock AMA + $1,000 Home Gym Giveaway
My Elite EXPs 90s are dollar for dollar the best value item I’ve ever bought for my homegym. They were the first thing I bought, and they’re one of the only things I’ve never felt the need to upgrade. Are there any plans for exploring designs that offer higher weight options, outside of the Commerci

PowerBlock AMA + $1,000 Home Gym Giveaway
I bought a pair of powerblocks in....2006? That maxed out at 45. My ex wife has them now and still uses them. I recently bought some elite exp (I think) with the 50-70 expansion. How long do you tend to support the expansions? I can see myself needing the 70-90 expansion at some point. Love the prod

Powerblock ELITE EXP vs Pro 100 EXP?
I've owned the pro 100 exp for years, it used to be that Powerblock didn't sell them directly, they only offered them through hammer strength exclusively. The urethane does add some bulk, but I think it looks cooler. They're also quieter, more resistant to chips and dings, and a little easier on flo

first time setting up a home gym and debating the best adjustable dumbbells 2026 options
As far as total weight, very hard to give you a solid answer without knowing you/seeing you move some weight around. Most strongish guys can at the very least get a good workout in with 80 pound dumbbells. If you want bang for your buck at $300 you want to look for local used. Enter Powerblock: very
