PowerBlock, Inc. was founded in 1991 by specialty fitness equipment designers who became friends while designing equipment for several companies including Parabody and Cybex. While searching for specific needs in the fitness industry, they were drawn to the large amounts of dumbbells they would encounter in the specialty fitness stores they visited. There had to be a better way of providing fitness enthusiasts with the performance advantage of hand weights without the space and restrictions of old fashioned racks and dumbbells. It was here the idea for PowerBlock was born. After two years of extensive testing, PowerBlock began sales of the newly coined "selectorized dumbbell". Since then, PowerBlock has continued to be the leader in the fitness industry as we constantly strive to out do ourselves in the pursuit of excellence.

Best home dumbbells. Well constructed and great product. I bought a Bundle which included the the sport bench. It is a good product as well. I would like the seat to be sturdier, but works well with basic stuff. It doesnt work well for standing on. Which limits its use. Other than that im very happy with my purchase.

I would definitely recommend PowerBlock to anyone needing great quality dumbbell sets that don't take space at all. Worth every dime. The packages got here in great condition. It's the second set I'm buying from them, I'm extremely happy with the products and the brand!!

I ordered the exercise posters from Power Block web site and they came very quickly. Love the laminated quality. They are pinned up to the wall in my newly created exercise room right above my PowerBlock weights. The exercise posters (with pictures) are easy to follow and well organized by muscle group (ex. Legs, abs, chest, back, arms). No more having to flip through my PDF printouts from the web. Gives a nice professional looking touch to my new home gym.

I've been using PowerBlock now for over 12 yrs. I started out with the U90 (5-90) set with a column stand along with the flat/incline bench with the dip attachment. Years later when they developed their barbells I then purchased their EZ Curl bar and now just recently just purchased their straight bar. Space saving, time saving, efficient and effective workouts have been attained. Everyone who comes over to our home gym are impressed by them and the ease and quickness in doing reps and really impressed by doing drop sets. By far the best set of all in one weight systems out there. If your serious about becoming the best you and adding weight training into your exercise program you won't find a better product. Yes you will find a cheaper inferior version in the market place... But if you are looking something that will last and make your workouts effective, look no more...PowerBlock is for you.

My boyfriend has been using his PowerBlock's for two years now and needed the first upgrade to 70 pounds. He is very pleased with this product. It's worth every penny spent because it's a durable set of free weights. Also the shipping time was amazingly fast. We will definitely be purchasing the next upgrade when he is ready!

I really like your product! I can switch quickly from one weight to another and keep up with my workouts. Great quality!

I found fitnessblender.com and noticed the weights they use. I really like the idea of one unit instead of dumbbells all over the place. So far they are working out well for me. I saw them at a retailer but they only had the really heavy ones and that's not a goal for me. I ordered them off of the Powerblock site. They arrived when they said they would. No issues. I am 5'1" - about to be 55 yrs. old - luckily fitness has been a part of my life so I feel good and don't feel my age. I recommend these for all age groups and levels. Feel good in my hands and balanced. I don't have kettlebells and these do fine. I know my son will like these when he's home and wants to keep up with his routine. If you need to see and feel them try one of the sports retailers and see if they have a set. Take all the weight off and give them a go. There are other brands like this and I tried them too. I really think these are better - at least for me.
