Why use dumbbells to train?
This hexagonal dumbbell offers a unique alternative to the barbell, creating a beneficial imbalance that stimulates muscle building. Ideal for intensifying your cross-training movements such as push presses, front squats or cleans & jerks!
Why does the dumbbell have a rubber exterior and hexagon shape?
Following your feedback, we have improved this dumbbell by giving it 6 sides: problems with rolling on the ground are a thing of the past.
Its rubber coating offers maximum impact protection and reduces impact noise.
Its ergonomic handle, with an anti-slip zone and curved shape, ensures a perfect grip.
Be careful when dropping the dumbbell
For trouble-free use, combine this hexagonal dumbbell with our rubber tiles (Part no. : 8651539). So you can lay it down safely, without the risk of damaging your floors.
Storing and maintaining your dumbbell
To keep your floor in good condition, store your dumbbell indoors, on rubber tiles (Part no: 8651539). This protects your floor from any potential damage caused by the dumbbell. Alternatively, you can store it on a storage rack for bars and weights (Part no. : 8788246).
To keep your dumbbell looking as good as new, wipe it down with a clean cloth.

For each exercise, start with the minimum number of repetitions (be careful to avoid failure and do 2 repetitions less than your maximum), then increase by one repetition per week until you reach the maximum number of repetitions. Then increase the weight.
