where do i buy heavy adjustable dumbbells? i'm looking for a set that exceeds 180 kg / 405 lbs (90 kg / 203 lbs per dumbbell) as a replacement for barbbells for lifts at home with the goal of doing 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 but for beta dumbbell lifts.
are there even 200 kg / 440 lb (100 kg / 220 lb per dumbbell) adjustable dumbbells out there? or is lifting basically only possible with barbells at a well equiped gym/home gym (to avoid barbell guillotines)?
>ALTERNATIVELY:
what level of volume would you need to perform 1 / 2 / 3 /4 with less weight (e.g. with a 100 kg / 220 lb dumbbell set (50kg / 110 lb per dumbbell). if 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 is your 1RM then i dont think doing 1 / 1 / 1 / 1 for 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 reps is the same thing, but i dont know what would be.
how much mileage could i get out of a 100 kg / 220 lb dumbbell set? it might be more reasonable and i could at least aim of a 1 pl8 OHP 1RM. i dont even know if there are 50 kg / 110 lb per dumbbell adjustable sets out there but it might be more likely to be a thing that exists
you won't get big like picrelated with 2 pair of dumbbells you NEED fucking compound moves
altho you can achieve cute athletic/ottermode
>dumbbell overhead press
>dumbbell deadlift
>dumbbell floor press
>dumbbell bent over row
>dumbbell squat
what are these if they arent compound lifts
what if i drank onions
Do you already have a barbell? Why not get olympics dumbells for the plates
i dont have a barbell and i dont have a room for bench with safety + squat rack with safety, etc. so i dont break my spine
Okay I rec something like this
https://www.amazon.com/Unipack-Adjustable-Weight-Dumbbells-105lbs/dp/B00C3RPWTM/ref=asc_df_B00C3RPWTM/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312125919515&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6367851449930538038&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9002023&hvtargid=pla-569059366051&psc=1
>52 lbs
why spend hundreds of dollars to lift half a plate
because its better than only lifting 45 lbs retard
>i dont have a room for bench with safety + squat rack with safety, etc. so i dont break my spine
rack and safeties are for pussies, just drop the fkn thing and do floor press, protect your shoulders that way too.
I have a 9ft high 'acrobatics' bar that can be also used as a rack and 400lbs of weights with a 1" barbell and 2" dumbells. Everything cost about $600 and fits in a 4x4 area.
*2 1" dumbells
just buy a pair of 17" or 18" spinlock dumbbell rods and buy plates as needed
how do i know how many plates they have room for though
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hardcastle-Dumbbell-Bars-Spinlock-Collars/dp/B016UPESGA
>80 kg / 180 lb max weight per bar
>160 kg / 360 lb total
nice. allows for 1 / 2 / 3 / 3

>19" fits up to 60 kg
how does this work
Get Olympic dumbbells, then if you get more space you can upgrade easy and don’t need to rebuy as much shit.
they cost more though 🙁
Ok then get something someone else suggested. But Olympic dumbbells will be the only adjustable dumbbell that you can put significant weight on.
fr? how much weight though. also is it less safe
You can put all the weight that you can fit on a 2" (olympic) or even a 1" spinlock with no worries. The limitations will be that they can't sit flat on your legs like fixed dumbells and that they'll have a lot more diameter.
olympic dumbbells are just longer then? thats still necessary to put more weight on them isnt it
Olympic plates have a 2" diameter hole. Old school plates are 1" and you use those with spinlock bars. They're as long as however long they are and yes that matters if you want to put more plates on.
He's talking about the width of the plates. It's expensive but steel plates are how you go stupid heavy.

>max load 100 kg / 220 lb per bar
nice. allows 1 / 2 / 3 / 4. apparently olympic weights are $1 per lb, so getting 220 lb of weight for $220 is more affordable than spending $500 a year on a gym membership
become a prostitute until you get enough money
prostitutes dont earn that much
out of curiosity are there olympic dumbbells that hold up to 200 kg of plates per bar or do they get to.a point where they dont have enough room?

Just get thin steel plates. These are half-inch plates, easily fit 10 a side for 200lb + 10lb for the handle. There are three-eighth inch plates as well. That's 13 plates instead of 10, 260lb + handle!
i dont understand any of this
Forgot to add, Play it again sports sells for $1 a pound, where I got my stuff like 20lbs at a time. 4dmpx

With a good collar, should still have 8.5" of sleeve per side to load plates. 17 pairs of 1/2" thick 10s, 340 lb!
Or 22 pairs of 3/8" thick 10s. 440 lb!
Weight of handle unknown.
