PowerBlock Question

Maybe you should check quick-lock dumbells. They are up to 120 lbs.
and extremely durable.

Very cool!!

Those look like much sturdier and simpler design than
either Powerblocks or Selectech blocks

Agree?

have real life experience with them?

I have used them. I even considered buying them.

But those square corners bump into you. They are just too big. Dumbells
should be small as possible and be without corners.

Hmm... I see

It seeems like I saw some version of these a while back in the weight
store. The sales rep said the pair they have now is an improved
version.They are very sturdy. He told me the PowerBlocks use a magnet
to hold the weights together and are not as solidly built but also
admitted they are good. I thought about getting the Quick-Lock but I
might just get fixed dumbells up to 190 lbs each for shrugs and calf
raises. (And hopefully uprights rows and biceps curls someday!)
Selecttech seem alright but they only go up to 52.5 lbs. You can get
free literature from Bowflex that show all the exercises you can do
with dumbells. Pretty neat.
