Power Blocks...best place to buy? HELP?

[Guest guest]

Okay, I have held off this purchase for months...does anyone know the

cheapest place to buy them...other than the powerblock site? I see

they came out with the medical version which adjusts at a 2.5 up of

weight...which is great!

Also, can I have people's thoughts on working out with them? I have

small hands and wondered if the bar can accomodate women's hands...

Thanks in advance,

I was going to buy a set of these this weekend, but we didn't make

it to the store. My local fitness place has them for the same price

in the brochure, $219. That is for the personal set. I didn't think

to ask about the medical with the 2 1/2 increments. I should go back

and ask.

I hesitated to order them, as shipping (once again according to

the brochure from powerblocks themselves) was $55! Plus an

additional 20$ for the shipping of the stand (somewhere over $100).

I figured it would be cheaper to buy them in town and pay sales

tax then to pay the shipping. They are weights, and are heavy!

I did try them out on Friday at the fitness dealer....I loved

them! Comfy grip, my hand fit nicely, the guy who demoed them also

seemed to fit his hand in comfortably. He even showed me how to do

the tricep overhead extension (must be the first thing all the women

ask about). I'll be getting a set...hopefully soon!!!
