BowFlex Adjustable Dumbbells Might Have A Big Problem, And You Might Want To Stop Using Them

BIG NEWS. Did you guys know that TikTok videos can be landscape?

I swear this is the first one I’ve ever seen in that orientation.

Anyway. In other big news, apparently we all have another reason not to work out, because there’s a dumbbell recall, as reported by @cbschicago:

“Nearly 4 million adjustable Bowflex dumbbells have been recalled, because the plates can dislodge, posing an injury risk.”

“The Consumer Product Safety Commission says there have been more than 100 reports of injuries.”

“The recall applies to the 552 and 1090 models[…]owners are urged to stop using the dumbbells immediately and contact the company for a full refund or a replacement.”

Shocking. Who knew Bowflex was still around?

Apparently it’s not really a good deal.

And this guy was most of the trouble.

Solid reasoning here.

Stay safe; take naps.

Always good advice.
