    Yeah those hamptons look nice. A bit pricey new IMO but certainly high quality.

    That, and any time there is a seam it's never 100% unpermeable if submerged. However unless you live in a flood zone, probably ok.

    Wow that's a nice diameter. I bought the Rogue DB handles and hated them, they were way too small at 28 mm.

    Thanks for your measurement and input on durability. The fact that there are some...

    Good to know, thanks. you think the Nuobell will hold up over time?

    also- anyone know the handle diameter?

    How is the gear mechanism that changes and holds the weight plates? Is it made out of plastic or metal? If it's not metal, I don't see it holding up over time.

    The MX 55 appears to be all metal...

    Put the pan on top of the scale, Zero/Tare the scale, then add the oil. Measure it in grams, as previously mentioned. Kitchen scales are not exactly pharmaceutical grade devices so 1 gram increments...

    Well that's actually the risk. The gears that you turn to hold/change the weight are made of plastic, so they stop grabbing the weight properly. This was the case with the Bowflex selectechs where...

    Agreed, I bought a set of the Rogue 15s and some dumbbell bumpers and I'm already sick of the handles. The DB bumpers are great for me at the moment because I have low ceilings so I can use them for...

    Spinlocks are slow to change. Remove the lock 2 times per dumbbell, change plates on 4 sides, then put them back on. It's a lot of handling. Not that it's debilitating or anything, just takes time...

    I've ordered from them 4 times. When there were delays from the producer they were proactive in telling me and giving me options for how to deal with it. Easy to get them on the phone and deal with...

    Great form tip. Another one that has helped me is to do a pull-up like you are trying to put your hands in your pockets. Sounds weird, but it makes sense while you are doing them and you can feel the...
