What does PIO on the dumbbell in the gym mean?
Pio is a unit of weight, and there are two pieces of rubber on the dumbbell. For example, the rubber on one side of the dumbbell is marked with 5pio. Does this mean that the weight of pure rubber is 5pio, and the whole dumbbell is 10pio, or that the weight of the whole dumbbell is 10pio?

Extended data:

Choose dumbbells with appropriate weight before training. Generally, you need to choose dumbbells with a load of 65%-85%. The so-called load refers to the maximum weight that can be lifted. For example, if the maximum weight that can be lifted at a time is 10 kg, you need to choose dumbbells with a weight of 6.5-8.5 kg for exercise.

For the average bodybuilder, there are two or three pairs of dumbbells with different weights, so it is enough to keep exercising. When exercising, lift 6-8 groups at a time, and each group repeats 8- 12 times. Don't move too fast, and each group is 2-3 minutes apart. The load is too large or too small, the intermittent time is too short or too long, and the effect is not good.
