A tip for anyone using these. Doesn't hurt to put some weight on the barbell you're hanging these off of, for safety. Otherwise, if you accidentally bump the hooks into the barbell it could fall right down on your throat.
Necessity is the mother of invention! Trust me, I wish I would've thought of this and the platemates--another genius invention. Thanks for posting this video.
Kicking the dumbbells off of your knees doesn't work when you're trying to do an exercise like military presses. That's why I'd love a pair of these bad boys. I have a bum shoulder that makes getting the dumbbells into position for military presses very hard without a training partner. I need these!
dude i'm sold. "thank you jesus" tells me that they are just the solution i've been looking for. i'm a skinny cat, and kneeing up anything over 75# DB's is a little hairy. no shame in working smarter. you're still getting every bit of that set. thanks for sharing!

some people have problems lifting up the dumbells from the knees. i.e. in my case it hurts my shoulder really badly
I never seen that before
I just happened to come across them at a fitness store and bought them right away!
strong
i want those hooks man
are you advertising the hooks or what man
No. I just think there are very useful.
Your kidding. What BS your way strong you can lift from the floor like me best part of the exercise. Is it to avoid injury
I only have 80lb dumbbells. But my gym has 125lb dumbbells so the work great on the bigger heavier dumbbells!
