Ignore the comments on the weight of these units; for fixed barbells they only go up to 110-120 pounds. Most gyms don't go over 100-110. For the majority of people 80 pounds is enough if you are using them for what they are intended for. These are not intended for bench presses, squats, or dead lifts the bar is not long or thick enough. If you where to pay for straight and curl bars 20-110 you are looking 1200-2500 a single set. I own a set of straight and a set of curl.
"not long or thick enough" sounds like a serious issue.
that 500$ include the extension that somebody would need to put on their house for all that equipment?
i think this product is silly, yeah, 80lb is crazy light... but come on dude, this is for people that want to use minimal amount of space and still get some exercise. this ain't meant for anybody that would ever be interested in a power rack https://static.slickdealscdn.com/ima...ilies/wink.gif
i don't get why people keep saying this... it's a curl bar and 80lbs isn't crazy light by any means.

Most people curl 70lbs? Huh. Most people would struggle to even lift a 70lb curl bar off the rack.

100lbs adjustable barbells for ~$40 (0.40 a pound, with a bar) - it's on clearance near me for $27, lots in stock in the area. "Normal" price is still 1/10th the Bowflex price. I have the 553's and love them - just can't bring myself to pay $500+ for 80lbs on this one...

I would rather buy a PS5 which involved years of research and is a work of art and science and just do push-ups. Dang... Way to go marketing.
Those PS5 gains!
