you dont want one thats "too rubbered" or your dumbell will be chafing against your thighs while youre curling.

you should buy something that has clamps that is "skruvad" im guessing its not translated to "screwed on"..
or buy a 3 sets of x2 dumbells.

the average of most men on dumbells is 10kg - 17.5 - and thirties.
thats three sets of x2 dumbells thatll like be expensive

but thats should be enough for everything u need like curls, pullovers and db press.

just beware not to get ones that is too thick or youll be irritated by chafing dumbells
and dont get one that use "squeeze clamps" or the plates might slide off.

>>77285828

>>77285873
>>77285881
These are aguably the actual best adj dumbbell, but I didn't want to shell out twice as much money for them for a product that's already price inflated across all brands, and if anything ironmasters are the one option even more durable and longlasting than pepins.

>>77286366
>I do up to 50kg on pullover
but will you really buy a set of dumbells only for pullovers?
>>
>>77286386
No, I would buy an adjustable set of up to 80-100 lbs(depending on a good deal)for many different exercises, and go to the gym I frequent for heavier days.
I only need one that can also do pullovers without the design causing improper form or falling over as I place it on its side to pick it up during pullover setup.

what the fuck, are adjustable dumbbells always this expensive?
>>
>>77287496
Good ones yeah, and ironmasters are on the cheaper end per pound. There are rep peppins, snodes, nuobells, powerblocks, etc. They all have tradeoffs between ease of changing weights, weight limits and expansions, long term durability and warranties beyond 2 years, how much if any rattle they have in motion, able to adjust in smaller increments than 5lbs, etc. Ironmasters sacrifice the first thing in order to max out every other stat. There are also olympic dumbbell handles that can take 2" plates that fit barbells, Titan makes decent ones, but those are even more annoying to set up than ironmasters and much clunkier to use and mean you need to buy more 10lb plates than you'd normally want. Just don't get something cheap with a low weight limit like 50lb bowflexes, you're only wasting money in the long term.
>>

>>77286553
Feels so good knowing I got my Ironmasters ten years ago when they still included the storage bench/stand for free with the 75lbs set. Aside from some nicks and chips in the paint, mine look and function like brand new.
>retard needs his convenient quick change 80lb limit snodes
Honestly I don’t like any of these newer quick change ones, even the reppins everyone jizzed their pants over last year. Ask people why, and they always say “u can do supersets!” Supersets are so gd overrated in 2026. Ironmasters are also a pretty good deal compared to Reppins.

MX100 Evolution is comparable

Hand placement for pullovers like OP is looking for won't work for those too well
>>
>>77287519
considering that they should last a lifetime I suppose that it's a case of "buy once, cry once", but damn.
Thanks for the overview, putting all features together I see why it would be best to avoid the cheap shit for something like this
>>
>>77285820
Screw locks are the answer for so many people but anons just keep lying out their asses about them constantly falling apart and failing. I have used them for years and never had a problem.
>>
>>77287547
You can put on more than one screw lock, which is what I do
>>
>>77287537
How big are your fucking hands?
>>
>>77287568
They have a button on where the hands would go that disengages the lock

Interesting, eisenlink is now second on the list

First time I've seen this exercise discussed on this board and I want to chime in to express my extreme discontent with it. Either the weight is too high, and it feels like putting a shit ton of stress on my joints and tendons when I'm putting the weight behind my head. Or, the weight is way too low, and I can comfortably do like 9 gorillion reps. What is the solution?
>>
>>77287656
Drop the hips for more stretch, also do a vacuum while performing the exercise.
>>
>>77287656
Dunno if this helps but yesterday i had no bench and finished my lifts with pullovers in the floor which i guess gives worse ROM but i had a great pullover session. I did expect to feel it more in my lats today which i dont.
>>
>>77285803
problem between bench and dumbell
>>
>>77287624
...Fuck
>>
>>77287656
Sounds like you got weak bitch tendons and joints. I love the exercise, the stretch overhead with a heavy weight feels great.
>>
>>77287757
>>77287624
>>77287537
Surely it ain't that bad?
>>
>>77285881
Yeah, you can’t do pullovers with those
>>
>>77287624
You don't flat hand the plate.
You maintain a double hand axe grip when doing pullovers.
Anyone who flat hands a side of the a dumbell when doing them does not know how to do them.
>>
>>77287656
Bend your arms at the elbow.

Well anon, those are all different types. Some have a dial, others you place the weight in and tighten the end cap.
