Why use dumbbells to train?
The hexagonal (hex) dumbbell stands out thanks to its innovative approach compared to the weight training bar, creating a beneficial imbalance that encourages muscle strengthening. Perfect for adding extra intensity to your cross-training movements such as push presses, front squats or cleans & jerks.
Why does the dumbbell have a rubber exterior and hexagon shape?
Based on your comments, we've redesigned this dumbbell with 6 sides, to avoid it rolling on the ground.
Its rubber coating provides excellent impact protection and reduces impact noise.
The ergonomic handle, with its anti-slip zone and curved shape, ensures a perfect grip.
Be careful when dropping the dumbbell
Go for this hexagonal dumbbell, coupled with the rubber mat (ref.: 8651539), for trouble-free training. You can lay it down safely, and protect your floors from damage.
Storing and maintaining your dumbbell
It's best to keep your dumbbell indoors, on a rubber mat (ref.: 8651539), to protect your floor. You can also store it on a storage rack for bars and weights (ref.: 8788246).
To keep your dumbbell in good condition, clean it with a clean cloth.

Tips from our coach
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.
For more of a challenge, you can incorporate running between your rounds or reduce, or even eliminate, rest. Feel free to increase your loads.
