4 benefits of having an adjustable dumbbell set

Almost everyone has heard of adjustable dumbbells these days. They come in a few different styles and brands, with PowerBlock and BowFlex SelecTech being two of the most popular brands.

Regardless of which brand you choose to buy, there are great benefits to having these types of dumbbells in your exercise room.

Below are some of the biggest benefits of having these dumbbells.

One of the biggest benefits of adjustable dumbbells is cost savings.

They literally take the place of a dozen individual dumbbells. If you bought all the dumbbells individually in five pound increments that equaled one set of adjustable dumbbells, you would be dumbfounded at what you would have to spend. Depending on the set you’re looking at, they essentially replace (in the case of PowerBlocks) 9 pairs or 18 stationary dumbbells that would have a combined weight of 450 lbs.

Retrench of space

The next big benefit is saving space. If you have a lot of space and space is not a concern, you will still enjoy how compact they are. However, if you live in an apartment or condo and room is a big factor for you, adjustable dumbbells will be perfect for you. Depending on the set you get, if you have a couple of square feet, you will have all the necessary space for storage. A small closet space also works well if you want them out of the way.

Workouts at home

If you’d rather not hit the gym, but still want multiple weight combinations to choose from, (without having to have a full weight rack lined up along the wall) these dumbbells are definitely for you. You won’t have to wait for a machine, for people to see you work out, or have loads of weights around your house.

Also, since they allow for a fairly simple way to change your desired amount of weight, you can easily use them in conjunction with many of the training programs that are on the market, such as the P90X.

Laptop

In line with the previous point, if you want to exercise with a friend, you can easily load these dumbbells in the back seat of your car or in the trunk and take them with you. Just be careful when carrying them to avoid back injury.
