Dumbbells?

[Bosco]

Anyone know where I can get some quality dumbbells? Checked craigslist and there's nothing decent nearby. Don't just want to go to Academy or Walmart and buy the cheap crap. Rather buy once cry once Not sure where to go and I'm sure shipping kills any online purchase.

"Cheap crap?" It's just heavy metal.

I bought these Bowflex ones: http://www.bowflexcatalog.com/bowfl...r~100131/Bowflex+SelectTech+552+Dumbbells.jsp
from Sears a few years back on sale and they came with the stand free. They're pretty nice, and easy to switch weight between exercise's.

Look up powerblocks on the net. They're pricey but good.

Replaces well over $700 worth of individual dumbells and (I think) cheaper than the bowflex type. 50 lb. should be enough for most people unless you like to bench press with heavy dumbells. Unless you have trouble bending over, I wouldn't see a need for a stand. Also, shipping on over 100lb may get pricey...but fear not, I got my set at Dick's

I got mine off of Craigslist. You just have to wait for a good deal to come up, unfortunately.

I have the cheap academy ones. They work fine. I also have a few of the nicer ones that I bought at a garage sale. They weigh just as much as the others

I gotta agree, here. Used lots of different one's over the years and have zero preference for or against any.

Not exactly.... Have you ever used the BowFlex Select Tech?

MUCH better than having 15 pairs of dumbells laying around that you WILL at least ONCE stub your toe on
