PowerBlock

PowerBlock Incorporated, the makers of the world's best adjustable dumbbells, is currently based in Owatonna, MN; where Carl Towley founded the company in 1993. Moving PowerBlock's headquarters to the Twin Cities will be monumental for this Minnesota grown, family-owned business! With a passion for body building and strength training, Towley observed the typical dumbbell took up too much floor space. This lead to the creation of a nested weight stack with a single handle secured by a U-shaped pin.
