PowerBlock Personal Trainer Set, 5 to 50 Pounds per Dumbbell
PowerBlock 502-00094-00 Personal Trainer Set 50 lb. eachThe only dumbbell system that can expand to meet your strength needs, PowerBlock dumbbells are the most versatile and effective exercise tool ever developed for strength training. PowerBlocks work intuitively. Rather than requiring you to buy a room full of dumbbells, PowerBlocks act just like a weight stack at the gym, with a weight handle that fits inside the first weight, which fits inside the second, which fits inside the third, etc. When you want to change weights, you simply move the weight selector pin into the appropriate slot and you’re set. As you lift the core, all the weights above the selector pin are lifted at the same time, turning your 3-pound dumbbell into a 6-pound dumbbell, or your 6-pound dumbbell into a 12-pound dumbbell. Not only is the system remarkably easy to use, but it’s also cost- and space-efficient, as a single pair of dumbbells can do the work of dozens.
This personal trainer set is a hybrid system that employs the weight stack from PowerBlock’s Personal Set and the handles of the Elite Set. As a result, users can achieve every 2.5-pound jump within the weight range of 5 to 50 pounds per dumbbell, in effect doing the job of 40 individual weights. Even better, the weights are more compact and balanced than traditional dumbbells, with a padded handle that protects people with weak wrists. Best of all, the free weights are terrific whether you’re trying to build muscle mass, firm and tone your physique, or get rid of unwanted body fat. The personal trainer set is not expandable and is compatible with the Elite/Pro weight stand. It also carries a limited 10-year warranty.

Great for home gym
Not too bad overall- much cheaper than the bowflex Not too bad overall- much cheaper than the bowflex. You can adjust weight in 2.5lb increments but it is a little more involved than I reaized – you must remove all the weight, flip the red lever in the picture and then watch out for two 2.5 lb steel cylinders launching out of the handle toward your toes – you will only make that mistake once! Then you repeat the process for the other side. So to change weight by 2.5 lbs it’s not as convienient but not a deal breaker for me. Also, the…
