What exercises can I do with Dumbbells?

Dumbbells are one of the most diverse pieces of exercise equipment that allow us to complete a wide variety of weighted exercises at home or in the gym. At Decathlon we supply a vast array of dumbbells in different weights, colors and shapes to ensure that everyone at all levels can join in. Our range covers the beginner who wishes to introduce a workout while working from home to the more experienced bodybuilder or crossfit athlete who needs an upgrade to a heavier weight. Dumbbells are unique in that every level of fitness can use them and they allow the user to complete a multitude of free weight exercises including lunges, bench press, shoulder press, hammer curls, farmers walk, rows and many more.

Hex Dumbbells

The hex dumbbell comes with a knurled handle for an improved ergonomic grip and was designed by our team mainly for cross fit style training. The hex dumbbell allows you to perform functional exercises such as press-ups while maintaining balance due to the hexagonal shape and won’t scratch your floor thanks to the durable rubber that protects against impact. The hex dumbbell comes with two weights and is available in a variety of weights including 2.5 kg, 5 kg, 7.5 kg, 10 kg and 15 kg. The hex dumbbell can be incorporated easily into any workout to ensure you meet your fitness goals.

For the more advanced user, Decathlon stocks heavier weights that allow you to work the biceps, triceps, deltoids, pecs and other advanced exercises. Our threaded weight kit range is perfect for performing hammer curls, bench pressing, shoulder press and bent over row. This versatile weight can even be used if you really want a challenge and decide to add weight to your farmers walk or lunges. The threaded weight kit comes with an ergonomic grip that can be adjusted in 2 kg increments depending on your training regime and capabilities and also comes with it’s very own transport kit so you can bring it with you on your weekend away, so no excuses to skip your workout!
