About PowerBlockThe inventor and founder Carl Towley was obsessed with fitness. Throughout all of his numerous gym visits throughout the country, the story was the same everywhere he went- dumbbells chaotically taking up precious floor space. There had to be a better way. Many people had attempted to build a better dumbbell, but their solutions were always too complicated, fragile or impractical. Carl put together the concept of a nested weight stack with a handle secured by a U-shaped pin, the 'ahh ha' moment! Within 24 hours of that, the prototype that is the foundation of all PowerBlock dumbbells was born. Please visit powerblock.com to learn more.
