OUR EQUIPMENT: WATSON DUMBBELLS

At WhittleStrength, we take pride in providing our clients with the best gym equipment on the planet to give them the best training experience and results possible. 

Our dumbbells from Watson Gym Equipment are one of our signature pieces. Coming all the way from the UK, these are the best dumbbells you can buy. Featuring the WhittleStrength “WS” emblem, our Watson Dumbbells range from 7.5lbs all the way to 120lbs! Watson Dumbbells are made with marine grade stainless steel and CNC machined to be perfectly accurate in weight! 

Our line of dumbbells feature Watson’s 35mm fixed handles and their 50mm revolving handles. Designed with human biomechanics in mind, the 50mm revolving handles help reduce stress on the wrists and elbows and significantly improve grip strength. Training with thick handle dumbbells and strengthening your grip can have potential benefits for longevity and overall health.

Here are some ways in which incorporating thick handle dumbbells into your workout routine may contribute to long-term well-being:

Joint Health: Thick handle dumbbells may distribute the force more evenly across your hand and wrist, potentially reducing stress on joints. This can be beneficial for joint health, especially for individuals with pre-existing joint conditions.

Improved Grip Strength: As you age, maintaining grip strength becomes increasingly important for daily activities. Working out with thick handle dumbbells can help maintain and improve grip strength, promoting independence and functionality as you get older.

Balance and Stability: Using thick handle dumbbells engages additional stabilizer muscles, contributing to improved balance and stability. Enhanced balance can reduce the risk of falls, which is crucial for maintaining mobility and preventing injuries, particularly in older individuals.

Functional Strength: The grip strength and forearm development gained from thick handle dumbbell training contribute to overall functional strength. This can enhance your ability to perform everyday tasks and maintain an active lifestyle as you age.

Cognitive Benefits: Physical exercise, including strength training with thick handle dumbbells, has been associated with cognitive benefits. Regular exercise has been shown to support brain health and reduce the risk of cognitive decline as you age.

Bone Density: Weight-bearing exercises, such as lifting dumbbells, contribute to maintaining or increasing bone density. This is crucial for preventing osteoporosis and fractures, especially in the elderly.

Variety in Training: Incorporating different types of equipment, such as thick handle dumbbells, adds variety to your workout routine. This variety can keep your workouts interesting and may contribute to long-term adherence to a fitness regimen.

Adaptability: Thick handle dumbbells can be adapted to various fitness levels, making them suitable for individuals at different stages of their fitness journey. This adaptability allows for continued strength training as your fitness needs evolve over time.
