The SelecTech dumbbells have exceeded my expectations--and I had heard mostly good things about them. With a bench (I got the Bowflex 2.1 bench), I can easily get a full workout using these weights. I have been a member of many gyms over the last fifteen years, using machines and free weights, but now I can finally just work out with weights at home at my convenience and without taking up a lot of space. I will eventually (in a year) save a lot of money not having to pay for gym memberships. I was concerned about the size and awkwardness of the SelecTech dumbbells before purchasing but that is not a problem at all. They feel great in the hand and allow really easy and quick weight changes for different exercises. I looked at the Powerblock weights, too, and did think those were awkward in shape, so I'm really glad that I got the Bowflex dumbbells.
Pros: Compact, Durable, Easy To Use, Multifunctional, Targets Muscles
I ordered these for my wife, to use along with her current fitness program. She LOVES them, uses them everyday, and get's really excited about moving up to heavier weights and having the option to go heavier with just a click of a dial.
Pros: Durable, Easy To Use, Good for Beginners, Space Saver
I use the SelectTech dumbbells as part of my P90X routine and they work great! They are very durable and compact in size. It really is like having a whole set of dumbbells that only take up a small place in the room. Great quality product!!!
Pros: Durable, Easy To Use, Multifunctional, Targets Muscles
These dumbbells are perfect for P90X users. The program has so many different exercises, you need an entire weight set to get everything out of it. You need to be able to quickly switch from 10s to 15s to 25s. With these dumbbells, you have all those options and more... and they hardly take up any space. You can click so quickly to different weights that it's perfect for home workout programs.
Pros: Compact, Durable, Easy To Use, Multifunctional, Targets Muscles
I'll admit I was skeptical. I didn't think they would be sturdy or worth the price, but they've been great! I use them several times a week with my workout program. They are quick and easy to change settings as I following the DVD workout. They take the place of some many little weights. I recommend to all!
