Why Choose Adjustable Dumbbells?
September 19, 2008
Traditional dumbbell sets certainly have their place and have been used over the years to develop many impressive physiques. However, adjustable dumbbells provide many benefits over dumbbell sets, especially for home users and garage warriors.
The biggest benefit by far is going to be price. A full dumbbell set can cost thousands of dollars, not to mention outrageous shipping prices if you're not lucky enough to be within range of fitness dealer. A similarly equipped pair of adjustable dumbbells can usually be had for under $1,000, quite a substantial savings.
Another big issue you run into with dumbbell sets is space. Commercial gyms with plenty of floor space don't have a problem housing several racks of dumbbells. For the average home lifter however, space is going to be limited. Adjustable dumbbells take up very little space comparatively and some sets come with stands to help with organization.
While traditional dumbbell sets are effective, the most practical solution for home lifters are appropriately sized adjustable dumbbells.
