PowerBlock Dumbbells and Kits: Save 40% Now

If you're in the market for adjustable dumbbells, you don't have to limit yourself to Bowflex. PowerBlock offers a highly reputable and more affordable alternative. Right now, Woot! (owned by Amazon) is running an exclusive sale on the PowerBlock EXP Stage 1 (5 to 50lb) adjustable dumbbell set, bringing the price down to a remarkable $239.99. That's a substantial $149 less than a comparable Bowflex SelectTech set. If you're looking to go beyond 50 pounds, PowerBlock has you covered with expansion kits. The Stage 2 (50 to 70lb) and Stage 3 (70 to 90lb) kits are also on sale at Woot! for $119.99 each. Amazon Prime members enjoy free shipping, while others pay a flat rate of $6, which is reasonable considering the package will weigh over 100 pounds.

PowerBlock Adjustable Dumbbells (up to 90lbs per Dumbbell)

PowerBlock EXP Stage 1 (5 to 50lbs) Adjustable Dumbbell Set

• Original Price: $409.00
• Sale Price: $239.99 at Woot!

Each dumbbell in the base PowerBlock EXP Stage 1 set can be adjusted from 10 pounds up to 50 pounds, with 5-pound increments achieved easily by turning a dial. The design keeps the plates neatly contained, saving significant floor space compared to a full rack of individual dumbbells. While a stand isn't included, you can purchase one on sale, or opt for any sturdy stand or table if you're watching your budget.

A standout feature of the PowerBlocks is their scalability. If you outgrow the 50-pound limit, you won't need to purchase a new set. Instead, the expansion kits allow you to increase the weight up to 90 pounds at a very reasonable cost, ensuring your investment grows with your strength.

The quality of these PowerBlock dumbbells is exceptional. Having used them myself, I can attest that they are as solid and well-constructed as the Bowflex SelectTech. Most components are made of durable metal, not plastic. The rubber-coated handles provide a secure grip, and the weight adjustment dial is both smooth and user-friendly. PowerBlock supports these dumbbells with a comprehensive five-year warranty, a testament to their confidence in the product's longevity.

Free weights are an excellent choice for home workouts, especially for those with limited space. A single pair of dumbbells opens up a vast array of exercises that can target nearly every muscle in your body. Combine these with cardio and bodyweight exercises like push-ups, burpees, or squats, and you'll have a complete workout regimen without needing additional equipment.
