One of the things you often need to try and do in a home gym is save space and that’s just one of the advantages of a fantastic dumbbell set like the Powerblock Elite.
There is also of course the matter of convenience. With traditional, free-weight dumbbells you have to keep uncollaring the dumbbell, changing the weights and collaring up again, but with something like the Powerblock Elite Set that’s a thing of the past.
Powerblock Elite Selector
The Elite 5-90’s are part of Powerblock’s new, second-generation dumbbell sets. The weights are square-shaped and attractively black powder painted.
You select your required weight with an easy to use ’slider’ (see picture right) and then simply lift the dumbbells out. You can then micro-load your dumbbell with the 2.5lb adder weights if necessary.
The weight settings you can use are: 2.5lbs, 5lbs, 7.5lbs, 10lbs, 15lbs, 17.5lbs, 20lbs, 25lbs, 27.5lbs, 30lbs, 35lbs, 37.5lbs, 40lbs, 45lbs, 47.5lbs, 50lbs, 55lbs, 57.5lbs, 60lbs, 65lbs, 67.5lbs, 70lbs, 75lbs, 77.5lbs, 80lbs, 85lbs, 87.5lbs and 90lbs.
I find these things so convenient that I find it a hassle to work with traditional dumbbells these days!
Currently on offer with an 11% reduction, the Powerblock Elite Set 5-90 can be purchased for $687.00. It sounds quite expensive but it isn’t really because buying the same quality Urethane dumbbells as 28 separates would cost over $6000!
However, if you don’t want to spend that sort of money and don’t need 90lb dumbbells you could go for the Powerblock Classic 45lb at just $338.00. The Elite set is ‘the business’ though if you want to give yourself plenty of scope for the future and, as with all of Powerblock’s stuff, this kit should last a lifetime.
