Hi. Just letting you know that I would suggest a more supportive weight bench. Also if you look at the barbell rack its kinda hard to rest it there cause its close together. Also look at the feet of this weight bench notice they are round abd this makes this weight bench suitable for lighter lifting

I'm not 100% sure! I think if the dumbbells are flipped over, you should be okay! They just slide off if they are in the position to switch them...at least that is what I have experienced!

Not sure about the weight restrictions. I'd contact the manufacturer. I only used them with a pair of 90# dumbbells. Read my other post. Good luck.

No I can bench the whole stack. I'm doing 45 reps with the entire stack now. I wish I bought a machine with more weight. I'm 5' 7" and 40 years old.

the product for sale is the bench only. You have to purchase the weight and a barbell separately

Good question John, after trying out the weights, you can put up to 100 lbs with small 10 lb plates but you can fit the 25 lb plates on each side. I have tried it and even three 25 lb plates on each side for bit remember its not a long straight bar so just be careful, but test it out

You can tie, suspend dumbbells from the bar if you loop cord around the dumbbell heads. I use two 10# dumbbells and occasionally two 5# ankle weights to get up to 50#. I'm trying to figure out if I can do something similar with my kettlebell (only have 1 15#er). It can work if you give it some thought. But, you can't add PLATES to increase the weight.

Yes you can do it without using supplements. If you're limited to 15 pound dumbbells, you won't see any results. Go to EXRX.net to get an idea of what weight you should be able to lift to get a frame of reference. Weight training strength standards, 15 pounds simply isn't enough to challenge your body.

You get the bench that you see in the picture, plus the squat rack. This is a great buy, but you will need to buy a weight set. MAKE SURE to get a 7 foot barbell (most "Olympic" set come with 7ft). I have a 6ft, and it definitely does not work when I add weights (defeats the purpose).

Possibly, though I'd just use free weights if building muscle is you objective, take a look at the various interlocked dumbbell sets, pricey but will last a life time - just my opinion.

One of the reviewers of the dumbbell set referred people to this site and said it's the cheapest he could find for add-on plates. http://www.warehousefitness.com/exercise-equipment/RDD/default.aspxHope this helps!

Your second question, whether these would be "better than a real gym" depends entirely on your personal habits and goals. If it becomes a hassle for you to get to the gym regularly for any reason whatsoever (time, distance, weather, condition of the gym, its equipment, its people, etc.), then eventually you won't do it or you'll not do it often enough to build up your body. That would argue for the convenience of having PowerBlocks at home where they're always convenient. Other factors are how private or social you are, whether you also want access to a gym's other equipment, and whether seeing others light years advanced from you is intimidating or inspiring. I think you give a strong hint in your first sentence, "I'd love to be able to work out at home". Listen to yourself. Regarding outgrowing them, if you're new to this and are slim, I think you'll have a very long way to go before you "need" to use anywhere near 50 lbs. per dumbbell. That's a whole lot of weight when you're doing multiple sets of medium to high reps of almost any exercise. The way to find out, of course, is to give a gym a for-free trial and see what kind of weight you need to exhaust a muscle after one set of 8 to 10 reps. Then determine how much weight you'll be handling to do 2 sets in a month or so and then 3 sets a half year from now. You'll grow, but not into a muscle freak who needs to bench 300 lbs. Anyway, if you do need more than 50 lbs. someday, sell the 50 lb. set and get the 90 lb. set. My guess is you'll never need to do that.

I just bought this set of weights and tried the lightest one. Not only does it not work for me, unlike you, I don't like these. I have the brand new set purchased two weeks ago. You are welcome to contact me at 920-379-9541. I'd be happy to sell you the weight you are looking for. Joan

The dumbbells get wider when you add plates. But the plates are pretty slim so it's no problem. Fairly equivalent in size to typical dumbbells at your local gym.
