  • The Good Dumbbell ~ Found!


    • For a number of years the famous Good Dumbbell resided at a water company near Adamstown, Pennsylvania. We went and visited it a while back and took some pictures... but when we stopped by a few years later to see it again, The Good Dumbbell was gone!

    Now, a 2150 lb. dumbbell (and an equally heavy marble/stone stand) do not just walk away by themselves so it was quite a mystery as to what happened to it. For a long time it was thought "lost."

    In a stroke of good fortune, the current owner contacted us to let us know that he was taking care of it and hoping to create a museum dedicated to the Good Brothers and their accomplishments. As you can see, the dumbbell currently has a very nice home. Hopefully the Good Brothers museum comes to fruition.
