Dial in your weight with the MuscleSquad Quick Select – from 5kg up to 32.5kg
This set gives you 12 resistance settings across a wide weight range – in 2.5kg increments. Unlike traditional, spin-lock adjustable dumbbell designs, the MuscleSquad models require no dismantling. Simply place each dumbbell on the included dock, turn the dial to your desired weight and start lifting.
The handles are soft and textured for a secure, comfortable grip. The gripping mechanism works smoothly and securely, too. Unlike some, we experienced no clinking or movements with these weights. Throughout the entire resistance range, the plates stayed in position, giving confidence to try different exercises.
The kit is surprisingly compact with a small footprint, too. When in the tray, the set measures 210mm (H) x 420mm (W) x 200mm (D) – ideal for storing in a bedroom or small gym.
It may seem expensive, but when you consider this set effectively gives you 12 dumbbells in one, and covers almost three times the resistance range, it starts to look much better value for money.
