17.5kg Dumbbells

17.5kg dumbbells are regarded as an intermediate weight for compound exercises (also called "multi-joint exercises") like bench press. For most adult men, 17.5kg is a solid intermediate weight for dumbbell bench press, incline press, bent-over rows, one-arm rows and goblet squats. After 3 or 4 months of regular lifting, 17.5kg is a challenging but appropriate weight for men looking to build muscle. It is regarded as an advanced weight for women to use on the same exercises. When using 17.5kg dumbbells for the first time, ensure your technique and tempo are not compromised. If you are looking to build muscle, aim for the hypertrophy rep range of 6-15 reps and do as many reps as you can before your exercise technique/form begins to break down. There are many protocols for building muscle, including multiple sets of 6 reps, or even 1 set training, but 2 or 3 sets of 6-15 reps per exercise is typically recommended. For isolation exercises like bicep curls, 17.5kg is a challenging intermediate-to-advanced weight, and an advanced weight for most tricep exercises.
