Found these while looking for gym equipment last night, dollar to kg, its a steal, especially since these are supposed to be commercial grade.
Also the hex 42.5 kg still seem like they're in stock: https://www.sumostrength.com.au/collections/commercial-pu-du…
absolute steal if you can pick up in VIC, not sure about delivery to other states.
Well, not every delivery guy can lift 47.5 kg ;)
Free pickup in VIC otherwise $180 delivery which makes it about $3/kg still which is not bad.
actually its for a pair of dumbells, so even cheaper than that ?
95kg (47.5kg x 2) for $300 inc postage >= $3/kg
None left in VIC it seems. Only QLD now.
$288.65 shipping to my location for a total of $408.65, ouch
The fun police has arrived
have arrived.
The grammar police are also in attendance
The grammar police are also in attendance.
FTFY. The punctuation police are here too.
Only $250 shipping ! Bargain
Anatoly LEEETS GO!
Bro doesn’t need dumbbells, give him a bucket and a mop lol
These are fake?
Da
Shipping to Vic kills the deal.
You would have to be a Dumb bell to pay this shipping price $250 to my location.
Getting dangerously close to what I lateral raise
Also dangerously close to what I put on this Christmas season
Thanks, grabbed the 42.5kg hex. Close enough for me to pickup soi the postage isn't a killer. Keen to find a deals in the 27.5-35kg range.
same, my current collection now goes from 10kg, 15kg, 47.5kg… need some inbetween
Dam up to 15kg i can understand but 47.5kg? Under what real life circumstance would one need to practice lifting 47.5kg in each hand?
Bench press? RDL? Shrugs? Rows? Bulgarian Split Squats? Goblet Squats?
Those are made up words, silly
I can't help feel like anyone that can bench a 47.5kg dumbbell probably just goes to the gym, that's hardcore lol
Home gyms are freeing
I can't help feel like anyone that can bench a 47.5kg dumbbell probably just goes to the gym
They do. They go their own gym in their house/garage where they have weights that they lift. I'm not sure why this is such a hard concept to grasp?
Home gyms are not a new idea.
Real man here folks, take a lot and admire. Training to be just like his hero, Andrew Tate.
My word, what do you do with a dumbbell this heavy?
Clean the dust off it once a month, as you tell yourself with hope “Tomorrow. Tomorrow is the day I lift you or at least roll you back and forth a bit “
'tomorrow' for real this time
Display them prominently before the date arrives.
Good weight for bench press and safer so you can throw them if you fail final sets or you don't have a safety bar or spotter
You can throw barbells if you fail as well, provided you practice how to bail properly. I did it earlier this year with 150kg when I was doing a pyramid and didn't give myself enough rest time after a heavier set.
I do agree dumbbells are probably safer for the average lifter.
What sort of psycho benches heavy without spotter arms? They take an extra 30 seconds to setup and save you from possibly dying.
@d3ft: You just tip the bar and let the plates slide off if you get stuck and can't sit up some holding the BB
Only psychos use collars on their bench press if they're going heavy without a human spot..
What sort of psycho benches heavy without spotter arms?
Anyone who was born before the year 2000…
Before the Internet you just went and did things and worked it out along the way. The obvious solution to this is as the other poster said, don't use collars then tilt the bar and let the weight slide off one end. It makes a hell of a noise, but it does the job
@d3ft: You can do what the others have suggested. Personally, as soon as I know I don't have it, I'll push the weight towards my feet as I quickly sit up. I wouldn't attempt a 1rm or try for a rep that I wasn't sure I had if I didn't have a spotter or safeties.
The comment I was replying to was talking about dumbbells being better for bailing. Obviously you aren't doing low rep ranges with dumbbells, so I'm talking about bailing with a weight you can press for 5+ reps.
Wonder even if I could do pickup if I could literally pick up to get them out of the store 😅
Rip the couriers back when he gets assigned to 1 man deliver these lol
Larry Wheels deliver these
Can I get it sent via AusPost with a custom sticker of "try stealing this you prick" on it?
Iirc auspost can’t even take 25kg or more parcels. I forget how Kogan shipped my adjustable 2 x 40kg dumbbells - I just remember a skinny Indian dude trying to get it out of his van, no trolley.
Yeah the current limit seems to be a bit wishy washy at the moment, the last time I spoke to a StarTrack rep they said 32kg but then we had a driver crack it about a 21kg item. Anything over <insert current limit of the day> is meant to be booked as a two person + tailgate consignment which costs about as much as overnight FedEx for the same weight.
$25 off coupon code - untested.
WELCOME25
Might as well try RIPMYBACK while you're at it lol.
Shipping is $711.85. Anyone got a coupon I could try?
I always try WELCOME10 and STAFF
I have also tried WELCOME100
You can try a lot of things. The question is, did it work?
WELCOME10 - sometimes
STAFF - never
WELCOME100 - never

Respect to anyone who actually uses this deal!
Guess I'll have to pick them up and carry them home on the train to save on postage.
Tried to buy some for benching. $181 shipping. Sub $100 I would have been in.
i prefer just buying weights in kmart to avoid shipping costs. its fair enough the shipping prices are expensive
I just do my workouts at Kmart/Rebel Sport and don't even buy them
Haha nice
its a steal
I can't, too bloody heavy.
C'mon, seriously, would anyone actually pay the $855 RRP for a couple of bits of metal?
Anyone who'd believe that would think $2000+ was a fair price for a coffee grinder, and think it was a bargain if they could get it for a grand and a half.
Edit: No, wait, sorry, now I understand why dumbbell weights cost so much. Its the cost of shipping them from wherever the factory is in the world to the store. Perhaps the store should get a local machine shop with a CNC lathe to make them for them.
Who's paying for the shipping of the metal to the CNC shop?
to light for me. i dont have time to go to the gym so i sculpt my guns at home
is one gun bigger than the other?
https://www.sumostrength.com.au/products/black-hex-dumbbell-… - Hex shaped ones are also $120 for 42.5 and 47.5kg. 47.5kg are available for pickup in Victoria.
42.5kg shows shipping off $90 to me in Victoria too (47.5kg is $160 odd), so might be an option for others.
Clearly the average ozbargainer is stronger than me.
hard pass, looking for 48kg
Do they come in 80kg's my gyms only have 70's
Any cheap deals on gym membership? I need to work on my upper body muscles before I can take advantage of the free "pickup" option.
I didn’t realise dumbbells went that high / heavy!
Triceps extensions sorted
When you snap a tendon don't forget to hide it until work the next day, claim compo RSI
Shipping kills the deal unfortunately. Shipping cost to my location is more than the price of the dumbbells!
