are these weight actually 100 pounds for each dumbbell?

No it is actually the total weight of everything including the bars (the bars are about 2.5 lbs each). So you would be able to do a max of 50lbs per arm with this set... which would be pretty awesome in my opinion :)

I purchased a pair of 25# dumbbells. But, based upon the shipping weight, this must be one 25# dumbbell.

Don't get them man, They're really very awkward. (try to imagine how long each bar is. They're both made to hold 100lbs in plates!) 18-20 inches long. If you're used to extending to where the weights almost touch you will dislike them. If you go straight up and down like a robot then I def recommend them. Start buying sold dumbbells one by one. It will be worth the money.

The box says 100lbs, I haven't had to use it with that much weight yet so I don't know how accurate the box is.

I didn't do any of the weighing myself but going off of what everyone said I see it like this: 1 Handle(5lbs)+2 Weights @ 2.5lb's(5lb's)+2 Weights @ 5lb's(10lb's)= 20lb's Per Dumbbell. Left Dumbbell is 20lb's and Right Dumbbell is 20lb's. Adding the collars would actually make each dumbbell weigh 24lb's each. Again I didn't weigh anything I don't even own them....yet.

I basically only use dumbells when I do bench presess/ flat and decline I used 100lbs to 105 pounds for flat as well as decline presses without any noticeable strain on my powerhooks , very well constructed and worth every penny. I would going upwards to 120pounds without giving it much thought.

No. They each max out at 100lbs per dumbbell. You have a total of 200lbs when both are assembled.

The barbell was one piece which was shipped separately. The dumbbells and weights were shipped in two other separate packages. The weight set is very solid construction plus it was shipped free!

Yes. There is a little table on the actual blocks to show you how to get from 5 pounds to 50 pounds. And really, if you take one of the adder weights out of the handle and put it in your hand, it weighs 2.5 pounds. So really, each dumbell comes with 2.5 - 50 already on it.

We ordered the pair and received just a single weight. Not sure how heavy it was, might have been 50 lbs. We returned it because we specifically wanted a pair of weights.

the 52.5 pound selection comes with one dumbbell that is 52.5 lbs the 100 lb selection is the same. the 105 lb selection comes with two dumbbells, each 52.5 lbs the 200 lb selection is the same (two 100lb weights) did this help or......

There are two options to buy - in one option the heaviest is 25 pounds per dumbbell and in the other, it goes up to 50 pounds. I have the lighter ones and am considering the heavier ones for my husband. LOVE THEM!

Yes. However, the manufacturer include the weight of each empty dumbbell in the 200lb figure. So, you'll get 190lbs of weight plates and two dumbbells that weight 5lbs each. That totals the 200lbs.

Yes, they are. I have not had a problem. I am not sure about the weight but they are heavy enough.

I'd call them (Powerhooks). They have gym grade Powerhooks too for a few bucks more. I know they have done contests w/ 150+ lb dumbbells.

For one dumbbell the bar, by itself, weighs 5 lbs. Then each side increases in increments of 2.5 lbs, up to four options, giving you a total of 10 lbs on each side of one dumbbell (total weight = 25 lbs).

My wife used 3 lb dumbbells and thought they were too light so she upped to 5 lb weights and they seemed to do the trick. Hope that helps.
