are they a bad idea?
I'm doing a homegym and im considering buying these instead of regular iron.
is it worth it? will they break or tear in no time?
also, what about the plates? do they even make water filled plates? Cant find them on amazon.
Water filled dumbbells
David Phillips
John Russell
are you an idiot? do you know the volume of 1 kg?
Christopher Howard
No "CLANK", no gains.
Chase Russell
Why would someone buy this? I dont understand.
William Rivera
>Americans will never immediately know the volume of 1kg of water
Nathan Parker
If you think you won't need anything more than 5kg then go ahead
Levi Gonzalez
Check gumtree or craigslist or whatever you have locally, there's always some boomer selling his rusty old weights for cheap.

Putting the dumb in dumbbell
Juan Allen
they're portable, in case I need to travel and there's no gyms nearby
Jace Baker
Just do power blocks dude lmao
Dominic Johnson
why would you need to know the volume when you can just weigh it.
you could literally just fill a back pack with books and curl that
Kayden Butler
If you care about portability just invest in a set of resistance bands. Or just do calisthenics when you're traveling.
Ethan Murphy
A fluid oz of water also weighs one oz you knob
Daniel Carter
my point is that it would be extremely unfeasible. imagine putting 20 litres of water into a "water filled plate"
Adrian Ross
just dont drop em..
Ian Kelly
Why not just use this instead?.. Portable too
Asher Robinson
>Or if you’re feeling mighty strong
Nolan Johnson
Great idea user. Get a gallon of milk, do curls, take a sip at the top of each rep. The ultimate drop set.
Sebastian Thompson
Jack Johnson
Austin Cox
>"Whoa, dude! You've been making some serious gains this years! How much do you bench?"
>"Like 5 maybe 6 gallons"
Logan Peterson
dude, dont post pictures of yourself on Jow Forums.
Nolan Rodriguez
Just get some adjustable 100lb dumbbells. If you never use them your only out $100, but if you really get into this fitness stuff you can easily upgrade them with more 25$=25lb plates as you get stronger. Never breaks. No plastic shit to tear off. I'd imagine water filled is probably too inconvenient, even for travelers, to fill and dump in a hotel bathtub, compared to a hotel gym or local gym
Noah Clark
Look, my dude.
Iron is 7.7 times as dense as water.
Think about how big a 45 lb plate is. A container of water of equivalent weight would be approximately 7.7 times as large.
Nathan Garcia
yes, placing nearly 4.5 L of water into dumbbells to get 10lbs is ridiculous.
Gabriel Rodriguez
Thanks for your contribution
Henry Barnes
Yes, 20L of water. I get it. Not saying its inefficient, just saying you could just weigh things out instead of trying to understand 1ml is equal to 1g and 454g is equal to 1lb. Thats why i suggested using books in a backpack instead.
Hunter Butler
I bought this 1 for $240. I rarely use it.. Im at the gym 5x/wk anyways. Just buy plain steel ones w the screw on cap that use plates.
Hudson Walker
>are they a bad idea?
yes. it's well known that water dumbbells conduct electricity. don't take them outside because grass damages them easily
Michael Mitchell
Carter Sanchez
Greatest country on earth doesnt need to know these things
Josiah Taylor
They're poor
Luke Jackson
>you could literally just fill a back pack with books and curl that
This is how I started lifting in highschool. I would squat wearing it backwards
Thomas Carter
actually, they do those in jail with jugs
Gavin Young
Your dumbbell is leaking, bro
Charles Torres
christ you are one obsessed little bitch lol
Hudson Watson
The weight will continue to decrease while you keep drinking milk. You'll just end up a fat fuck. Ha!
