I don’t see the EXP on the power block website. How do they differ from the pro and elite models that are on their site.
Here is a link to a sold out listing of the Sport EXP bundle on the Powerblocks website that should have the info for those.

So I guess it’s an older model. Should be basically the same shite I’d think?

yeah, minor differences.

Size and shape of the weight plates
Handle shape and size (can always buy 3rd party handles to swap out)
Locking mechanism for the adder weights. Some are auto, some manual.
Some have the wrist support in the top, some don't.

They’re really cool. Did a good back & biceps workout before work this am. Next is a foldable bench.

I grabbed a pair after reading about it here, as well as the stand. The quality is great. I had planned to get the 70lb and 90lb expansions next time they went on sale as well but didn't realize that it's a discontinued product line and we probably will never see them again.

You may be able to buy them directly from PB.

Damn dog, you went all the way up to 90s?!? I thought these were for the ole lady to get some home workouts in with You used her as an excuse to spend money on yourself

Nahhh I didn’t buy the expansion this time around. 50 is more than enough for her and good enough for me in a pinch. I’ll only use them occasionally when out of town or gyms closed. I enjoy the gym too much to commit to straight home workouts. It’s my 90 min away from chaos.

I feel ya! The pic you posted showed the numbers up to 90. I just assumed that meant it had the expansions.

Question for 777:

You have your Power Blocks in a garage gym. Is it climate controlled? If not, have you had any issues with rusting on the dumbbells? Just moved into my new house and I’m hesitant to leave them in the garage with my bench long term due to possible rust. Please advise, kind sir.

My PBs are fine. Anything with a painted, chrome, or SS finish has been okay. My barbell is the only thing with some surface rust. I am in HTX
