So apparently Planet Fitness is discriminating against clavicle-lets and handlets now. This is so fucked up.
>>
the actual reason dumbbells have thicker handles as they get heavier is two reasons
Stops them breaking because thicker handles are tougher
it also is harder to lift, so it creates this illusionary feeling of progression

>Stops them breaking because thicker handles are tougher
A fuckin' dumbbell doesn't need to be that thick m8.
Let's say you have a 120lb dumb bell that is 16" long overall with, let's say, 12" from center to center of weights. The maximum moment on the bar is going to be 60lbs * 6" = 360 lb-in.
Let's say you have thin-ass 1"Ø bars, so the plastic section modulus of the bar is 1^3/6 = 0.167 in^3.
The stress in that bar would only be 360 lb-in/0.167 in^3 = 2,155 psi.
Yield stresses of steel are like 36,000psi + depending on the grade you get. Not even fucking close to breaking.

I've been a licensed professional engineer for over a decade.
The stresses aren't even remotely close to yield.
People aren't moving dumbbells like shakeweights, so they're really not experiencing cyclical loading beyond just getting picked up.
If a dumbbell gets dropped, it's not going to land in such a way that a large bending force gets introduced to the bar between the weighted ends.

Short guys are just gross and untrustworthy.

the 120lbs dumbbells at my gym have the exact same handles as the 10lbs ones.

My college installed some pull-up bars. One is about six feet tall and the other is about seven feet.
I've only seen one person use them, but I can imagine most guys will have to jump to reach the seven foot bar.

>most guys will have to jump to reach the seven foot bar.
Are you in fucking middle school?
>My college
I hold my question. I can reach 8' flat footed and I'm only 6'5", so most dudes should be able to at least reach about 7'6" unless you're talking about mexicans or indians (from india).

lots of beaners here nowadays. there were IRL /pol/ meetups a few years ago and it was >90% beaners, not even kidding. their usual defense is muttering incoherently about indian people. fun fact, the vast majority of latinas have gotten molested by a father/uncle before they even hit the age of 10, spics and child rape go together like candles on birthday cake.

another fun fact, the child molestation/budgetary stats are even worse than what the government admits because spics love lying.

Cumskins larp as other races all the time especially black people online so I don't get why you're whining like a bitch.

I would say that police departments painting spics and nigs as white to raise the "white" crime rate stats is far worse than any online larping. You retarded welfare-leeching spic. Just because your great grandfather was Spanish (themselves Muslim rape babies) doesn't make you white. You're an obese, ugly manlet, who commits crimes at over 5x the rate of white people (probably more like 20x if you didn't lie about being "white" on every form possible)

no-one gives a flying fuck what comic nerd faggots think.
at least normalfags are aware of dwarves etc.
to most normalfags wolverine is just hugh jackman; IE a 6ft+ tall chad.
comic wolverine was a throwaway gag in the last deadpool reddit capeshit flick, immediately corrected by having the henry cavill cameo

Wouldn't a thicker handle just act as fat gripz and incorporate more forearms? Who cares about pushing bigger number when you can still get stronger overall? Serious question

Get out of 2010 you beaner. LatAm, Hispanic Americans, non Whites in Europe except gypsies, American groids, Asian Americans, American Indians, Mixed race Americans, Hindu Indians in and out of India, Sikhs, Levantine Arabs, and even Muslim women in the USA boast a fertility rate LOWER than that of White women in the USA and Europe. Only fresh off the boat illegal immigrant women from Central America, which Zion Don actually has stopped from coming in nearly entirely, and gypsies produce more children than White women during their child bearing years. No clue why spics, non Whites, and White liberals can't get the fuck out of 2007 but this is just embarrassing. You are the reason there is a baby bust and with the exception of your immigrant parents from Africa, LatAm, and Asia you're more likely to die from drugs, guns, deaths of despair, and murder
