As a fitness enthusiast with over a decade of experience, I understand the significance of having a reliable and convenient workout setup. In my exploration of the best fitness equipment, I’ve come to appreciate the practicality of hex dumbbell sets in India. Many of us do not like to change weight plates on our dumbbells. It is just very easy and convenient to use hex dumbbell sets in India. Hex dumbbell sets in India are found in various weights like 2kg, 5kg, 10kg, 20kg, and more.
While the price of hex dumbbells varies, with options like 10kg priced at around 2000 INR and 30kg at 6000 INR, the convenience they offer makes them a compelling choice for those committed to strength training.
Hex dumbbells are generally rubber coated so that they do not make a sound and save the floor if you drop. But old-school hex dumbbell sets in India are of iron and they do make the sweet clang sound. But be careful of dropping them on the floor, that will leave a mark.
Also, hex dumbbell sets in India are suitable if you have a high budget as these are costly and you will also need a dumbbell rack in India to keep them. And the home gym cost in India will rise. In that case, you can opt for dumbbell rods.
Now if you have a car or can buy dumbbell from local shops then you can get a better deal than online stores. Otherwise buy dumbbells online – and while writing of this content COVID-19 is running wild and you should buy dumbbells online anyway.

A great back exercises and I would recommend that you use heavy hex dumbbells 10kg or more. If you want to go more heavy then you can do single arm bent over row with support.
Dumbbell Overhead Press
Keep your elbows to the front and lift dumbbells up over your head. Use dumbbells as per your strength. If your grip is weak there is a chance that the dumbbell will fall on your head.
Front Raises
Another shoulder exercises but for the front deltoids. Use light weight dumbbells like dumbbell set 2kg or hex dumbbells 5kg each. Front deltoids are small muscles and not suitable for heavy lifts.
Tricep Overhead extensions
A great tricep builder which many also call french curl. Use a hex dumbbell weight you can carry as if the dumbbell falls you will destroy the floor. I used to hold my elbow tight near the ear with my other arm and it works great for the long head of the tricep.
DB Curls
We all love big biceps. This dumbbell curl will do that for you. Use moderat weight of rubber dumbbells set and you can switch between heavy and light weights.
Dumbbell Snatch
Do not start with heavy Hex dumbbell set 20kg each hand. This is a full body explosive workout, there is a high risk of injury and property destruction if you slip the dumbbell from your hand. Better start with Hex dumbbell 5kg set or 5kg each hand.
Dumbbell Clean and Press
It is another explosive exercises that will also increase strength and stamina. And this is also should not be rushed with heavy dumbbell sets. Start light and progress slowly.
Dumbbell Lunges
Unilateral exercises are best to cure weakness of limb muscles. Like we sometimes feel that our left arm is weaker than right, in this case unilateral exercises help. Single leg dumbbell lunges help with better strength development and balance.
