I think you'd be surprised. If there is hard foam or rubber pads down, they can take drops pretty well. That assumes that the metal bar/ handle is at least 50% or more deep into the concrete. It's not really worth doing it on purpose(just in case) , and I definitely wouldn't drop them on a solid floor(like concrete), but accidental slips will not be the end of the dumbbell. 😄👍 I've used them before, but this just makes me want my own now that I bought my own place.

Why is that 5 KG so big? Here's why: I once tried to make my own dumbbells with concrete and cement, but the thing is that the weights turn out to be really big and hard to train with, because density of cement is 1.44 g/cm^3 and concrete is 2.4 g/cm^3 , while the density of iron is 7.87 g/cm^3 That means a 5 KG concrete dumbbell is 3-4 times bigger than the ones made out of iron. So imagine a 15 KG concrete dumbbell that looks like a 50 KG iron one! 💀

These things are terribly weak and an absolute waste of your money. The smallest fall will shatter it into pieces. The point is to avoid spending costly amounts for better quality metal Dumbbells, but in the long run you’ll have to likely buy 5+ pairs of these in a few years and spend way more than a metal pair will ever cost. People are so dumb and short sighted, it’s really sad. No one can see farther than a few seconds and a few inches in front of their eye balls. You’re an actual baboon if you think this is smart. Spend extra up front so you save more over countless years of using one singular pair.

My aunt used to fill up her newborn’s baby formula cans and filled them up with her husbands cement. We used to workout outside and it was pretty convenient. She lost like 45 pounds, and she never stepped in a gym (also cause we lived in Mexico and it was unnecessarily expensive) She also used stacked blocks for leg rise.

I think he means that his Aunt, who recently had a baby, found herself with empty formula cans and instead of throwing them out, they filled them with her husbands leftover cement from previous jobs he had. They would then use those as dumbbells/weights.

A 50 lbs bag of concrete is $5. Plus the metal rods will be like $15-25 for a few. One metal dumbbell costs at least $2 per pound, so if you find a way to make the mold cheaply and you make a lot then it’s worth it

Guys, to those who are dissing my grip strength: the ridges on a barbell for ex. are there to prevent the bar from rotating in your hand, it is not about grip strength, there is a reason why competition barbells have such aggressive grips. And yes maybe it is not that big of a deal for 10-20 pounds but try doing hammer curls with a 35 with smooth handles, good luck with thatxd.

Back when I was 12 years old and I started lifting some weight to add more muscle in my martial arts routine I did not have enough time to stay at the Dojo to lift so I decided to build my own pulley system in the backyard with the help of my father. 10+ years forwards and the system is still there and even my father uses it after work. It's enjoyable to see that the stuff you build up for your muscles is being used by your family 💪💪
