What Are The Best Dumbbells For P90X?


September 8, 2010

If you have been doing any kind of working out or training over your lifetime you have probably came across a set of dumbbells. They are a staple of any workout and are always in a gym. They might be one of the best pieces of workout equipment in a gym because they provide a large amount of resistance to challenge your muscles.

If you are a gym rat your have probably noticed the racks of dumbbells scattered around the whole place. Nothing can ruin a good workout more than having to pick up after other people when they leave their weights laying around. It has become so common now that gyms are putting up signs to remind people to put away the weights they used.

What about if you workout at home? You probably want to get a set of dumbbells because they work so well. Then you think back to seeing those racks full of weights and wonder where you are going to put it. With weights ranging from 5 pounds to 100 it can take up quite a bit of space. It would be nice if there was a better way to use dumbbells with out it taking up a lot of space.

There is a way. The Bowflex Selecttech Dumbbell was created to finally get rid of the issue of having a bunch of weights hanging out on a stand taking up space. How it works is the weights slide in and out of a locking mechanism with a simple turn of a knob on the handle. In a couple seconds you could go from 5 to 55 pounds. This makes working out at home so much easier to do now. There is no cleaning up a bunch of weights after finishing as it goes right back onto a moveable stand.

The Bowflex Selecttech 552 Dumbbell is very popular amongst the P90X workout crowd. Now you can easily switch between weights while you get ready for the next exercise. With a couple turns on the knob you can keep up with the workout and not have to stop. The popularity of these dumbbells has let people cancel their gym memberships because now they can do everything at home with this piece of equipment without having to worry about space and a lot of after workout clean up.
