Why train with Dumbbells?

High quality dumbbells can be used for a wide variety of exercises and training can be made easier or tougher depending on the weight and number of reps that you do.

Dumbbells requires greater balance and control during exercises compared to barbells or machines – allowing for optimization of kinaesthetic performance.

What are the main benefits of this type of training?

Dumbbell exercises can create both inter & intramuscular coordination, which leads to higher levels of muscle activation, and due to their relatively small size that enables them to be held in both hands, dumbbells can be used to make a wide range of movement patterns, perfect for building up movement-specific strength.

  • Ensure a better balance between different parts of the body, improving the integrity of the ligaments, tendons and joints;
  • Favour fat loss and weight maintenance;
  • Can be complemented with other weightlifting accessories like weight benches;
  • Are adaptable to the requirements of the user and are easy to carry and store.

What to look for when buying Dumbbells?

Dumbbells are a relatively simple bodybuilding accessory, but you should take certain aspects into account when purchasing them like:

There are 2 types of Dumbbells - adjustable and fixed. With fixed dumbbells the weight is already established and cannot be changed, while adjustable dumbbells provide a variety of weights so that intensity can vary during the exercise.

Shape

The shape of the Dumbbell can be hexagonal, square, triangular or round.

Weight

Weight is a determining factor when deciding to get a Dumbbell. Depending on the brand and type, weights can vary between 0.5 and 50 kg.

Material

Dumbbells can be made of a variety of materials, which can be a determining factor of the price of the accessory. The grip is made of steel while the coating can be vinyl, foam, rubber, chromed steel, or urethane.

As well as being an excellent fitness tool, Dumbbells are tough, durable and safe (with proper technique!)

What Weight Dumbbells Should I Use?

The appropriate weight for dumbbells depends on your fitness level and the specific exercise you are doing. For beginners, it is recommended to start with light weights (1-5kg) and gradually increase the weight as your strength improves. For most exercises, using a weight that allows you to perform 8-12 reps with proper form is a good starting point. It's always important to listen to your body and not push yourself beyond your limits. It's better to start with a lighter weight and work your way up gradually than to risk injury by lifting too much too soon.
