Rebel Dan Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 What do you guys think about them? Thinking of getting ... will I ever need a pair of them on the NF programs? Or would just 1 be good enough? Kinda spendy so 1 would be nice lol 1 Quote Link to comment
Sloth the Enduring Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 I guess I wouldn’t drop that kind of cash unless I knew I needed them. There are different NF programs, it depends on what you want to do. That being said, having a set of dumbbells at home are super handy for getting a quick workout in. You’ll want a pair. 1 Quote “We might as well start where we are, use what we have and do what we can." – Caitlin Rivers Sloth: The Man with the Hammer battle log Link to comment
RedStone Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 Gotta get a pair if you pull the trigger for DBs I'm not a huge fan of the adjustables because they can feel a bit awkward in some positions, but they really are great for a space saving option! Do you have any buy/sell/trade sites you can check out? Craigslist sorta stuff? People are always getting rid of workout stuff, if you keep an eye out you might get lucky on some less expensive options!

Rebel Dan Posted March 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 I’ve been keeping an eye on Craigslist for sure. I guess the biggest thing I gotta figure out is home much $ to spend. I’m leaning towards just buying a pair for the weight I’m at right now. As I get stronger I’ll go buy another pair that would spread the cost out but be more in the end. Hmm....with the level I’m at right now only dumbbell things I’m doing are rows. Quote Link to comment
Eruannu Posted March 28, 2018 Report Share Posted March 28, 2018 I had a roommate who had a pair. They were great and useful in a small space I'm not dropping cash on a set as I'm more into sandbags, big rocks and kettle bells. I will not endorse adjustable kettebells except the sandbag ones which are a bit different from either sandbags or kettlebellsSent from my E6810 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment
Rebel Dan Posted March 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 I decided to go with the straight up hex dumbbells that have set weight. The store near me sell them for $1 a pound which doesn't seem terrible. I think they look nice. I am going to buy them as I need them. The only dumbbell thing im doing right now is rows so I just got 1 40lb for now. Got my wife a couple 5lbs, and 10lbs. So, I thinking building the collection slow over time will be good, and end up with a great set at the end. 1 Quote Link to comment
GoldFly Posted April 2, 2018 Report Share Posted April 2, 2018 I have the Powerblock U70 set and they are great. Yes, they were fairly expensive (I think about $250-$300 for the set) but my wife and I are very happy with them. She does the Fitness Blender programs and I've used them in the past for P90x... both of which require quick weight changes. Got tired of repeatedly screwing and unscrewing barbells on and off with every different workout. Quote Link to comment
Mark D Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 I have these: Adjustable Dumbbells Very good quality, and as heavy as I could possibly need in dumbbells.
