Performing multiple sets of bicep curls might not be as beneficial as you may think.
Strength training is an integral part of any workout, but casually raising and lowering an eight-pound dumbbell can be fruitless in your quest for long, lean muscles.
Unimpressed by the results dumbbells and resistance bands offered, fitness expert Brian Schwartz searched for an effective alternative. He joined forces with fellow fitness guru DeAnn Teixiera-Wong to create Power Reels, a set of dumbbells that stand out from the weights you may be using now.
Unlike a traditional set of dumbbells, Power Reels features two sources of resistance that will improve your workout. Springs are packed inside each dumbbell while a snap-free polyester cord attaches the two. Its multi-directional movements help improve your range of motion and naturally activate your muscles.
If you're new to exercising and haven't perfected your form, Power Reels offers complementary videos so you can finally do exercises that will show results. The company claims its clever design will help you build lean muscle quickly and increase your metabolism, and its users agree.
"Outstanding product," one Amazon commenter wrote. "Allows for full range of motion and provides excellent workout."
"You can get a great, but very tough workout using power reels," another said. "The thing I like about them is the diversity they add to my fitness routines."
One more commenter summed it up by simply saying, "This is the best product of its kind on the market."
Power Reels is currently available in three different weights: three-pound, five-pound, and eight-pound. Whether you want to stash this in your gym bag or add it to your home gym, the dumbbell set offers a great workout for a reasonable price.
Power Reels Dumbbell Set, $69.99
