SelectTech dumbbells are perfect for P90x! The selection dials are fast and easy to use so you can keep up with P90x fast-paced workouts. I am particularly pleased with the solid construction. The weight fills solid and does not shift like traditional dumbbells are prone to do.
Pros: Compact, Durable, Easy To Use, Fast Weight Switching, Multifunctional
I was skeptical about getting it because of the price, but I got it during a deal so I jumped on it. It's convenient because you save so much space. I don't like that it's so long because it makes it hard to do certain exercises like chest presses. The DVD that comes with it can be informational for beginners.
Pros: Convenient, Easy To Use, Multifunctional, Saves Space
Second set, had first set for 6 years and loved them. They were stolen in a PCS move back to the states. Could not live without them so I got another set!
Pros: Compact, Durable, Easy To Use, Multifunctional, Targets Muscles
Love these things. They're a pefect addition to my Bowflex Power Pro XTL home Gym which I've used and abused for about 9 years now. It's great to be able to mix up the free weight training with the resistance training of the power rods, as the dumbells allow for a full range of motion on certain exercises that I can't quite get on the Power Pro.

I use the product in my light training during my baseball season. For low weights, they are a bit bulky - they are always the same length, just vary in weight, so if you use 10 lbs. or less, you still use a dumbbell that is the size of a much heavier cast iron set. For limited, home use, I believe this is a perfect addition to a home gym. You do not need to maintain a large dumbbell rack and these things are easily moved. Weight selection is very simple and very quick. If you do not get a free stand with the dumbbells, I do not see a need for the stands - easy enough to leave them on the ground in the standard holders that come with them. Note: I have not used them enough to speak on their durability but I am pleased at this point.
I was using a DVD program for about 45 days. The dumbells i had did not give me the flexibility i needed to get the most results. Moving to the Select Tech 552 was a no-brainer. Clicking to my desired weight, quickly has sped up my workouts, alowing less down time between reps. I wish i had this a while ago!
