How do theses add up to 40lb weights? I don't see that.

The 40lb includes the bars and other parts of the set. So when you have both in hand, all weights on the bars, you are holding in your hands 40lb. So, the 40lb is not the measurement of the weights themselves, that would make it a 30lb set, but you wouldn't be taking into account the weight of the bars which do have some weight to them. Since I had skinny arms, I had considered just starting out lifting the bars alone because they have some weight to them.

Didn't think about it, but I think the weight of the handles is included. Each handle weighs about 5 lb.

No, it doesn't come with weights. You'll want to buy some 10's and 5's and just try it out and see what balances it. Start with 10, then add more weight as needed.

I think you only need the counterweights if you are over 400lb, which this scale is said to do. They are to add additional weight to the balance. We did not get them with our purchase, they were extras, that can be ordered if needed. You can contact the seller or manufacture and ask them. We are happy with this balance scale, you can get on it 5 or 6 times in a row, and still get the same reading, that we did not get on the number of spring scales we have had, that break so easily when bumped.

I assume it's a combination of fastener used and mounting method. I personally wouldn't put more than 50 pounds per pair of clips eg: if you used one set in the middle on a picture that'd be one pair.

i think they were weighted 50 lbs? i forget. I didn't hang anything too heavy but they were fairly large D rings.

I believe that the combination of the three cables will give you 40 lbs. I can't imagine that putting all three cables on would equal 120 lbs. and if so, I'm a lot stronger than I think I am! The way the handles are set up, you can put on any combination of 1, 2 or 3 cables - The system comes with 3 cables and I am currently using 2 cables which gives me a pretty good workout.

shipping weight is a lie. I ordered a set of 50lbs dumbells and shipping weight said it was 88.4lbs. I have checked my weights and they are 100 together.

The manufacturer says 350lbs, but I weight over 400lbs and there is no problem.

I thought the same thing. It didn't but I chose to use 2-300g weights any with how small of a set of scales these are

The handles and spin locks add up to 3 lbs each, so then with the two 2.5lb plates and the two 6lb plates, each bar adds up to 20lbs for a total of 40 for both.

I don't know. I never weighed them when full. But they did the job that I used them for!

40 pounds is way too much to be a simple error. If you have any weights for weight lifting at home try checking the scale with them. For it to be a pound/kilogram problem this scale would have to be in pounds and the doctor's and your old scale would have to be in kilograms. If you're able to use weight plates for barbells and they don't match then notify the company. If they do match, then take the scale with you to the doctor's next time and check them side by side.

No weights. You gotta have your own weights and if u have olympic weights u gotta buy converters for them. Hope that helps.

They are rated for 350 lb, and what I am lifting is about 250 lb. I would not try lifting over the rated 350 lb.

No extra weights. They are just standard plates you can pick up just about anywhere..even amazon.

For lift, I tested it out. I put 16g of weight and it worked fine, then 20 and 23g worked fine, but at 26g you can't do much.
