PowerBlock Elite EXP Series Adjustable Dumbbells
PowerBlock Elite EXP Adjustable Dumbbells are a compact dumbbell system utilizing a block shaped handle which inserts into a selectorized stack of weights and where the desired weight is locked and lifted for dumbbell training. Those familiar with the PowerBlock system will quickly recognized the classic square shape of the Elite EXP Series dumbbells. However, the Elite EXP has been modernized over previous model versions which utilized the original “Dial Lock” to secure the 2.5 pound chrome adder weights in the handle. The upgraded Elite EXP features the PowerBlock Auto Lock lever for opening and closing of the add-on weight tubes, which conveniently engages the locking mechanism automatically when the handle is inserted back into the weight stack.
What are the advantages of the PowerBlock Dumbbell System?
With PowerBlocks, users can work out with a weight range from 5 pounds all the way up to 50, 70, or even 90 pounds, but still only take up the space in their home fitness studio or garage gym of a single pair of rectangular weights that are 6 inches wide each. PowerBlocks are more compact and balanced than traditional dumbbells, and have a comfortable contoured handle surrounded by padded support tubes that protects people with weaker wrists. Weight changes are quick and easy, with 10 pound incremental changes performed as easily as changing the weight selector pin on the side of each dumbbell block. PowerBlocks also feature two 2.5 pound add-on weight inserts per dumbbell for maximum versatility, allowing both 5 and 7.5 pound weight “step up” increments. This is definitely an advantage over most commercial dumbbell sets which traditionally do not offer 2.5 pound incremental “in between” sizes past 50 pounds.

Why Powerblocks?
Dumbbell Comparisons-Why Choose PowerBlock?
Here are a few reasons we believe PowerBlock is the right choice for your dumbbell needs:
VARIETY – We offers the most extensive line of quick change hand weights available. Whether you are a general fitness enthusiast or a world-class athlete there is a model just right for your needs including expandable models that can grow in weight as your needs do. Why pay more for the weight you don’t need? We have models starting at just $149 per pair.
COMPACT – PowerBlock is the most compact dumbbell available. At any weight, you will not find a shorter more compact dumbbell than PowerBlock. This means a dumbbell with the weight more concentrated around your hand and makes the dumbbell easier to balance and control. Unlike PowerBlock, some dumbbells’ length prohibits some exercises like chest presses or seated curls.
WARRANTY – Best warranty available-PowerBlock Elite dumbbells are backed by a real warranty of 10 years. Our warranty involves calling real people for any customer service or warranty claims. When your logo says PowerBlock World’s Best Dumbbell, you need a warranty that will back it up.
EXPANDABILITY – We have sets that are expandable. That means as your needs grow, your dumbbells can grow with you. For example, you can start with a set up to 50 lbs per hand today, expand later to 70 lbs per hand, expand again later to 90 lbs per hand and expand further to 125 or 130 lbs per hand.
CUSTOMER SERVICE – World Class Customer Service. When is the last time you called a company for service and actually got to talk to a live person? We believe that is still important. When you need a question answered, a part sent or just a brochure, we are just a phone call away with a real person on the other end of the line answered here in the States.
REAL STEEL – Real Steel = Real Results. PowerBlock weight plates are powder coat painted steel. This assures long-lasting quality and durability.
LONGEVITY – PowerBlock has been making PowerBlock dumbbells for nearly 20 years! Since 1993.
CONVENIENCE – No docking Stations needed. PowerBlocks were invented under the premise of Space saving, money saving, and portability. Our stands are an option or convenience. With PowerBlocks you can just pick up 2 dumbbells and go. Some dumbbells have docking stations that require a minimum of 4 parts to be taken with you. Unlike PowerBlocks, with these dumbbells, if you don’t have the docking station the dumbbells won’t work. With PowerBlocks, you can set them on the floor and still change weights.
PATENTED – PowerBlock has 36 granted patents to date, including our Patented Selector Pin Design. PowerBlock dumbbells use a selector pin to change weights, much like a weight stack machine at a gym. This patented technology has a proven 20-year history and does not have any fragile parts like some dumbbells with mechanical dials.
