An older Warren Lincoln Travis is shown here with his famous dumbbell. Travis would often hip lift the dumbbell as part of his performances. Empty, the dumbbell weighs 1650 pounds although Travis often loaded it with sand so that it topped out around 3750 pounds. The Travis Dumbbell can now be seen at the York Barbell Company Museum.
