Most of the people I visit do not have weights that challenge me and I can’t bring my entire dumbbell set on the road. However, over the years I have been frustrated by my workouts when on the road. adjustable type or barbells with weight plates. I really like the hex dumbbells since it is FAST to change weights between sets vs. I have a hex dumbbell set from 3 pounds all the way up to 80+ pounds with options to go higher. I purchased a complete set over the years, mostly when busy in graduate school, as they allowed me to get in a killer workout from home at all hours since I had a crazy schedule with limited time for the gym.
I am a big fan of the old school hex iron dumbbell. I have been on the sidelines for this debate, until now… However, reports of drawbacks of this type of system are mostly around safety (pin/dial failure while lifting), robustness of the adjustment mechanism and feel that often does not quite match that of a hex dumbbell during lifts.
For example, a set that provides up to 50 pounds weight per hand in 5 pound increments consolidates 10 sets of dumbbells to only one set at a lower cost of the total weight available per dumbbell. The value of having numerous weight options for dumbbells in ONE SET primarily comes from smaller footprint for dumbbell storage and cost. I have witnessed the debate for years on adjustable dumbbells.
