PowerBlock
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Went with a wall mounted rack, cable tower, an adjustable bench, and some Powerblocks.
- Weights: Bells of steel bumpers and some of my dad's old iron, and powerblocks
- I had initially bought some kettlebells and powerblocks during COVID.
- and a lot of mid-tier value stuff (Rogue echo bumper plates, Powerblocks)
- Looks pretty solid, love my powerblocks!
Cons
- Yes a little steep, but I sold my old powerblocks to offset my cost
- Parent context: Have you actually tried the Darko ones? Reply: Yep, fellow home gym bro close by. I guess it’s sorta like if you are OK with the rubberized handles on the PowerBlocks vs. a knurled stainless handle, or rubber grips on you...
- Im on the fence on getting the 85 pound versions and getting rid of my powerblocks that are capped at 85 pounds.
- The Powerblocks I have now can’t get upgraded.

Parent context: Have you actually tried the Darko ones? Reply: Yep, fellow home gym bro close by. I guess it’s sorta like if you are OK with the rubberized handles on the PowerBlocks vs. a knurled stainless handle, or rubber grips on your lat bar…then the upgrade to Stainless Steel won’t be a justified upgrade.
