Pro 50

They DO all have tradeoffs - you just have to figure out what tradeoffs you're willing to make and what aligns with your personal preferences. I have a preference for the powerblock Pro 100s, but they're expensive, bulky, and have that cage design which are all real downsides and I don't often recom

I went with powerblock pro EXPs up to 80 lbs. Here was my criteria that helped me make my decision: -durability: I was concerned about the mechanism breaking as well as if I dropped the dumbbell (something I never do, but you never know if you have an injury or accident). Powerblocks have probably t

powerblocks are an excellent value - especially the older Powerblock EXPs with the red markings. extremely quick to adjust weights and feel tough as hell. it doesn’t have any mechanical moving parts that can break.

I bought the Powerblock EXP back in the Covid dayz but these are the all metal ones and I don't think they even sell them anymore, they changed to putting that plastic coating on them. But still Powerblocks would probably be the fastest change of weight plates at 10 LB increments, although as you mi

50 lbs is an achievable mark for good DB’s. I got powerblocks and love em. Is that just where you want to start or is that where you think your strength cap is?!Couple of criteria’s to look at.-Drop-ability/ durability- size/ structure- adjustability/speed of change.- priceThe ones I considered most

6 months ago I was in the same position and trying to evaluate an adjustable dumbbell set. Here’s why I went with the Powerblock pro exp 100: -able to change the weights quickly, without putting them back into any sort of cradle. I really enjoy drop setting and the idea of being able to put them dow

Yeah I’m stoked to have both, but they both have pros and cons. I probably should’ve bought Pepin’s before Ironmaster’s and Ironmaster’s before PowerBlocks lol I’m definitely favoriting the Pepin’s more in my workouts just for the fact they speed up my workouts back to the time frame it took using P

I’ve played around with PowerBlock setups and the dumbbells themselves are great… the attachments are where it gets a bit “it depends” the straight bar works, but don’t expect it to feel like a normal barbell. it’s a bit clunky, balance is a little weird, and adjusting weight isn’t as quick as just

I have two sets of Powerblocks. One that is 5-50 with 5 lb quick adjustments, and a 10-90 with 10 lb adjusts. I find this works well for me when I need mediums and heavies, as well as when the instructor might use the same dumbbells for different exercises but I’m able to easily and quickly tweak it

I’m in the exact same boat! I’ve been training neutral grip with my PowerBlocks and it’s a great alternative movement. It’s just that once I get over 70 lbs, getting the dumbbells up into position sucks. So I know I don’t need a MGPB or VHS. But man do they look cool.
