FAQs

How is the quality of fixed-weight dumbbells?

The quality of our fixed dumbbells is excellent. The handle and the weight core at both ends are made by melting steel and casting it into the shape, ensuring a very strong structure. You can confidently drop the dumbbells on the ground when your workout is finished, without worrying about them breaking. At the same time, the outer layer of the weight is wrapped in tasteless rubber, serving as a protective layer for the floor.

Dumbbells are suitable for a wide range of individuals, from beginners to professional athletes, for effective fitness training. Here are the main groups that can benefit from dumbbell workouts:

What are the advantages and disadvantages of adjustable dumbbells?

Adjustable dumbbells are a type of fitness equipment that allows users to adjust their weight, and they come with both advantages and disadvantages:

Advantages

 Flexibility — Adjustable dumbbells enable users to customise the weight according to their fitness level and goals, making them suitable for different training stages and intensity requirements.
Space-saving — Compared to a complete set of fixed-weight dumbbells, adjustable dumbbells take up less space. This is a significant advantage for home or small fitness spaces.
Cost-effectiveness — While the initial cost of adjustable dumbbells may be higher, considering their flexibility and the cost of replacing an entire set of fixed-weight dumbbells, they can be more economical in the long run.
Versatility — A set of adjustable dumbbells typically comes with various weight plates, allowing for a variety of exercises targeting different muscle groups.
Adjustment time — Uses an integrated dial system within the handle, allowing to adjust the weight by simply twisting the handle. Internal locking mechanisms engage only the selected plates, leaving the rest behind.

Disadvantages:

Durability — Not suitable for dropping or heavy impact. Unlike fixed dumbbells, they are more delicate — dropping them can damage the adjustment system or misalign the weight plates.
Complex - More prone to mechanical failure over time. The internal adjustment mechanism involves moving parts, which can wear out or malfunction with frequent use.

In summary, adjustable dumbbells with a twist-to-select mechanism offer quick weight changes, a sleek design and space-saving convenience, making them ideal for home workouts. However, they can be less durable and sensitive to impact.
