I use dumbbells in our workouts everyday because they let progress and get stronger and more fit, plus the variety of exercises you can do with dumbbells keeps our workouts fresh.

Are You Serious?
If you are serious about losing fat and making yourself healthier, dumbbells are just what you need.

The problem with dumbbells is the amount of space they take up. Fortunately, there is an elegant solution to that problem. The adjustable dumbbell.

"It is like having an entire gym in the same space as one pair of dumbbells."

There are quite a few adjustable dumbbell sets out there but in my opinion, there are only two worth considering: The PowerBlock Dumbbells and the
Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbell

The reason I say these two are the only worth considering is because I haven't found any others built to the same quality standards as the PowerBlocks and the SelectTechs. All the others I have tested feel flimsy and cheap. We have a set of each and use them both.

Of the two, I prefer the PowerBlock Dumbbells

The PowerBlock set is more compact and comes in a variety of weights. We recommend the 5 to 45 pound set. You adjust it by simply moving a pin to the weight you want.

The Bowflexset looks more like a typical set of dumbbells and comes in three different models. A 2 to 25 pound set. A 5 to 52 pound set and a 10 to 90 pound set. The 5 to 52 pound set will work best for most people. You adjust the weight by turning a dial.

Why I Think PowerBlock Dumbbells Are The Best

Here are a few reasons I believe PowerBlock Dumbbells are the right choice for most people:

1) PowerBlock Dumbbells are the most compact dumbbell available. At any weight, you will not find a shorter more compact dumbbell than PowerBlock. This means a dumbbell with the weight more concentrated around your hand and makes the dumbbell easier to balance and control.

2) 10 Year Warranty-PowerBlock dumbbells are backed by a real 10 year warranty that involves calling real people for any customer service or warranty claims. We have been using our set of PowerBlock Dumbbells almost everyday for over 6 years and they are still like new.

3) PowerBlock sets that are expandable. That means as your needs grow, your dumbbells can grow with you.

4) Real Steel = Real Results. PowerBlock weight plates are powder coat painted steel. This assures long lasting quality and durability. PowerBlock Dumbbells aren't made of plastic.

5) Longevity. PowerBlock has been making PowerBlock dumbbells since 1991.

6) No docking Stations needed. PowerBlocks were invented under the premise of Space saving, money saving and portability. With PowerBlocks you can just pick up 2 dumbbells and go. Some dumbbells, including the Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbell,have docking stations that require a minimum of 4 parts to be taken with you. Unlike PowerBlocks, with these dumbbells if you don't have the docking station the dumbbells won't work. With PowerBlocks, you can set them on the floor and still change weights.

7) Made in USA. PowerBlocks are 100% made in USA. We think that matters. When you buy PowerBlocks, you help provide jobs for over 100 families in America. Not only PowerBlocks employees, but their suppliers for such things as machine parts, steel and packaging.

8) Patented Selector Pin Design-PowerBlock dumbbells use a selector pin to change weights, much like a weight stack machine at a gym. This patented technology has a proven 10 year history and does not have any fragile parts like dumbbells with mechanical dials.

9) Padded Wrist Supports-Only PowerBlock offers padded wrist supports within the construction of the dumbbells. If you don't need them, you won't even feel them. But if your wrists start to fail on you at the end of a set they are there for you.

So, if you are considering getting a set of check out the PowerBlock Dumbbells first. If for some reason they don't seem right for you, check out the
Bowflex SelectTech Dumbbell
