If there's one piece of home gym equipment anyone can make room for at home, it's a pair of adjustable dumbbells. These clever pieces of fitness gear require minimal space, shifting from light to heavy with a quick turn of a knob or tweak of a setting. They simplify things by tackling the two main common challenges posed by working out at home: space and equipment. Think about it; just one set of the adjustable dumbbells typically replaces around 15 standard dumbbells.
Best Overall: SMRTFT Nüobell 80lb Dumbbells
- Great weight range
- Durable machined steel construction
- Includes portable storage cradles
- Optional double-legged stand for improved storage
The Nüobell is the best blend of reliability and authentic dumbbell feel I’ve used," says Samuel, who has been using these for over three years. "The shape and design of these 'bells make them ideal for accessory motions, like skullcrushers and biceps curls, and they’re easy to hold for goblet squats too." Aside from a few scratches, they've held up great to three years of heavy use.
With up to 80 pounds of weight per dumbbell and a feel that's nearly indistinguishable from traditional 'bells, users can utilize the same set of weights for a complete full-body workout. Users can quickly drop down to lower weights for exercises like bent-over flies or pile on the plates for more intense squats. "It features a 'turn-and-click' design rather than just a built-in selector," notes Williams. Users simply turn the handle until they reach their desired weight.
If you’re building the mother of all home gyms and money is no object, this comprehensive premium set of dumbbells from SMRTFT might just be your best pick.
