Overview of the Neoprene light weight Dumbbells

 
Neoprene lightweight dumbbells are a good option for the entire family at home or in special areas in your professional gym. They are easier on the hands, lighter, and can takesweat a little better than the metal and chrome alternatives. As neoprene is easier to work with you will also find more color options on these dumbbells than just the usual black and metal designs of urethane or rubber dumbbells. TITAN sells three different packages of neoprene dumbbells ranging from 1lb to 10lb. Do not discard them fully, even if you are already a beast. Light dumbbells can be used to work through rehabilitation or very stiff ranges of motions. The full specifications of the TITAN Neoprene options are:
 
 
- Neoprene coating helps prevent the dumbbells from slipping out of your hand while in-use and gives a comfortable texture.
- Comes in pairs of  1lb to 10lb
- Color coordinated with corresponding white lettering to denote poundage for easy identification, making grabbing dumbbells mid set a breeze
- Hexagonal shape prevents dumbbells from rolling all over the floor when set down between sets, also makes them stackable for easy storage
 
These are fun, low cost additions to any gym which can be used by kids, women or athletes for exercising and rehabilitation. They will also not make your place look like a dungeon.
 

Pros of the Neoprene light weight dumbbells

 
 
  • Colorful
  • Low weight
  • Low investment
 
These colorful,light dumbbells can be all you need to stay fit. Especially if you like 20- 30 Minute high intensity cardio workouts or yoga with a bit of weighted assistance. These can also be a good choice for someone more mature who stillw ants to stay fit. In a professional gym or ambitious home gym it will help with warm ups or attacking the very last fiber in your body. In addition the investment will also not put you back too far and when stacled these dumbbells also do not take up a lot of space in your home gym.
 

Cons of the neoprene lightweight dumbbells

 
The cons of the neoprene lightweight dumbbells are:
 
  • Very small
  • Limited use
 
You can do a lot wrong with a set of dumbbells that puts you back less than $100. However in a crammed space you do not want anything that just sits there and is not being used. If you are already very fit the chances are high that these dumbbells will only gather dust in your home gym. In a professional gym you might need a special rack to store them as they are too small to fit standard dumbbell racks. As they are small and light there is also a higher of them being stolen than regular dumbbells. So keep them within sight of staff if possible or only get them out for the respective classes you are running.
 

Alternatives to the Neoprene lightweight dumbbells

 
Alternatives to the Neoprene lightweight dumbbells are:
 
  • Mini kettlebells
  • Foam rollers
  • Bands
 
If you want to train and start with small weights you can also work with mini kettlebells. While these are usually harder to get and a bit more expensive than neoprene dumbbells, they leave you with more option. You can almost anything youcan do with dumbbell with a kettlebell. This logic does not apply the other way around as you can not do swings and Turkish get ups with a dumbbell.
 
For $70 you can also get a very good foam roller or two cheaper ones. In a home gym scenario where you already have regular dumbbells you will get more use out of these for warm ups and stretches than with neoprene dumbbells.
 
Bands are also an option in this price range. A good set of resistance bands can be used for stretches, mobility exercises and even in combination with a barbell for the westside method. If it was me, I'd rather invest the good bit of $100 into resistance bands than small dumbbells. I would do the same for my wife.
 

Conclusion for the Neoprene lightweight dumbbells

 
The neoprene lightweight dumbbells are great for beginners who do cardio circuits and want to do a little more than just bodyweight. They can also be a good in rehab or for focusing on weak spots of professional athletes. Ultimately I think that resistance bands are the better buy for these purposes as they have the same price range, but provide more band for your buck.
