Prime Day Deal: Amazon Basics Adjustable Dumbbells

With this Amazon Basics set, you get two hand barbells weighing 3lb/1.3kg each, plus four 5lb/2.27kg weight plates, four 2.5lb/1.13kg weight plates and four threaded collars coming in at 0.5lb/0.23kg each. That comes down to a total weight of 38lb/17kg across both dumbbells and a maximum weight of 19lb/8.6kg per dumbbell. Perfect range for upper body training, like chest, back and shoulders exercises, or for those who are just starting to build up their general strength.

Amazon Basics look a lot like a traditional set of dumbbells, the kind you would typically find in old-school gyms. The barbell is silver metal, while the round weight plates come in a semi-gloss black color. Each barbell comes with a metal textured grip handle that gives a secure hold. They are smaller and more compact options when compared to other models (L17in/43cm x W6.2in/15.7cm x H9.4in/23.9cm), making them a perfect fit for tight spaces.

It is worth noting that these dumbbells also come in a handy portable case which makes them super easy to store or take on holiday.

Amazon Basics Adjustable Dumbbell set is durable, functional and affordable. And with 30% off, it is a better deal than ever.
