Save on one of the best adjustable dumbbells around. Spin-lock dumbbells are a pain to change the weights: however, thanks to Skonyon's stand and unique C-shape plate design, you only have to place the dumbbell back in the stand and rotate the handle to alter the weight. 

Why get this dumbbell deal?

The Skonyon adjustable dumbbell has a very cool design. Each plate is steel wrapped in soft plastic for cushioning and comfort, forming a C-shape into which you slot the handle. Simply twist the handle to lock the plate in place: no spending minutes between sets spinning the lock to try and change the weights. It's a beautifully well-thought-out design. 

The dumbbell comes with a stand to place the whole unit in, and can weigh up to 45lbs when fully loaded: enough for most people, and more than most conventional adjustable dumbbell sets. The durable material has a premium look and feel, while the handle is textured to provide additional grip. 

Dumbbells' greatest strength are their versatility. Grip it in both hands when performing squats to train your squats and glutes, or doing overhead curls to train your triceps. Or, you can take the weight down and use it in a single hand to train your shoulders and arms. 

This has the added benefit of training your core: as you force your body to stay in the correct position while being unbalanced with a weight in one side, it activates all the stabilising muscles in the trunk of your body. Want to look better and feel stronger? This is the deal for you.
