Frequently asked questions about adjustable dumbbells
Which adjustable dumbbell pair should I start with?
For most lifters a 4 to 36 kg pair (HR-36, 2 kg increments) covers isolation work as well as heavy presses. A 4 to 20 kg pair is enough for beginners or light upper-body work. The extension set later takes each dumbbell to 45, 53 and 65 kg without buying a new pair.
What is the difference between the HR-32, HR-36 and HR-41.5?
HR-32: 2 to 32 kg in 2 kg steps. HR-36: 4 to 36 kg in 2 kg steps, expandable to 65 kg. HR-41.5: up to 41.5 kg in 1.5 kg steps. All are 100% steel and adjust by moving plates along the handle, with no dial and no load-bearing plastic part.
Are Uni Strength adjustable dumbbells really 100% steel?
Yes. Handle, plates and locking system are steel. That gives them the durability of fixed dumbbells, a compact footprint and a stable load distribution, including on dynamic movements.
Do I need a stand for adjustable dumbbells?
It is optional, but a stand makes weight changes faster, protects the floor and saves you from bending at every adjustment. There is a rack for the 4 to 36 kg pairs and the Titan 60 stand with a steel frame rated for 200 kg. The '+ Stand' packs include it.
Can the dumbbell plates be used on a bar?
Yes, with the HRBD quick-change adjustable bar (all metal), sold alone or in packs: the same plates then serve both the dumbbells and a short barbell, which keeps the cost of a complete home gym down.
