Bowflex Adjustable Dumbbells
Bowflex dumbells are the most popular of all adjustable dumbbells because of their unique design. Lets take the Bowflex SelectTech 552 adjustable dumbbells to review because this is the most popular in their line.
The great thing about this dumbbell set is that you have what would be many different sets of free weights all in one. So if you want to use small weights such as 5 lbs. you can do so in seconds. The only negative for men is that these dumbbells only go up to 52.5 pounds in weight. This means that for some of the dumbell workouts such as shrugs and chest presses you might not have enough weight.
How does the price compare to a dumbbell set?
If you go buy a whole set of dumbbells you can expect to pay around 1 dollar per pound of weight and more if you get a rubber coated hex dumbbell set. So buying a set of 5 pound dumbbells would run you $10 dollars. The set of bowflex adjustable dumbells is $385.00 and save a lot of space in your home because of the design.
