35kg Dumbbells

Designed for experienced strength trainers, 35kg dumbbells provide substantial resistance for demanding upper and lower body workouts. 35kg dumbbells tend to be used by intermediate to advanced lifters performing heavy pressing and rowing movements. For example, using 2 x 35kg dumbbells for flat bench press, incline press and one arm rows, for reps of 8-12 per set, would form the basis of an intermediate to advanced workout. Reaching this level of strength generally takes years of structured training. 35kg represents an especially challenging weight for female lifters, with only elite strength athletes able to handle it for multiple reps on almost any exercise. Using 35kg for multiple reps on shoulder press is an impressive feat, usually only achievable by advanced lifters with many years of experience. 35kg is very rarely used for isolation exercises including lateral raises and bicep curls, as it is too heavy and only used by elite strongmen/women and bodybuilders for these types of lifts. Net World Sports stocks 35kg dumbbells in two finishes to suit different training environments and requirements. Our bestselling hex dumbbells are perfect for home gyms. They feature contoured chrome handles and rubber ends for reduced floor-impact. Urethane versions with a durable, impact-resistant coating are designed for commercial gyms and PT studios. Dedicated storage racks are also available to keep dumbbells secure, accessible and organised.

35KG DUMBBELLS FAQs

Can you build muscle with 35kg dumbbells?

Yes. For lifters capable of handling this load, 35kg dumbbells provide plenty of resistance to stimulate muscle growth. They are a relatively heavy weight and only normally used for demanding compound exercises such as dumbbell bench presses, incline presses and heavy rows. This is because compound exercises incorporate several muscle groups that work together to move the weight. Working through challenging sets of around six to twelve repetitions can provide an effective stimulus, provided each rep is performed with control and the set finishes close to muscular failure. The three main factors that cause muscle growth are mechanical tension, metabolic stress and progressive overload. By looking to progress and advance the number of reps and/or sets you can perform - you will build muscle as part of a bodybuilding and strength training routine and lifestyle. Eventually, to keep progressing, you should look to move on to 37.5kg when 35kg feels relatively easy. In addition, using slower lowering phases and shorter recovery periods can all increase the demands placed on the muscles. 35kg is unsuitable for many smaller-muscle exercises - often called "isolation exercises" or "single joint" exercises. These include lateral raises and conventional bicep curls. Having lighter dumbbells available makes it easier to train every muscle group through an appropriate range of motion, whilst reducing the risk of injury.

Who are 35kg dumbbells best suited to?

These dumbbells are aimed at experienced gym users with an established strength training background. Beginners should not attempt 35kg dumbbells. There may be certain people who can lift 35kg as a beginner, but this is extremely rare and it's best to work up to avoid injury. Even when the muscles can handle the weight, the tendons and connective tissue may struggle. A 35kg load is a demanding choice for adult men performing exercises such as flat bench presses, incline presses and one-arm rows, and generally requires several years of consistent training to reach. For women, handling this weight on the same movements represents an elite level of strength. There is also a practical consideration: lifting a pair of 35kg dumbbells into position for pressing requires coordination and control. It's especially difficult to get them into position for a shoulder press, and may require the help of a spotter/partner. Suitable lifting technique and a safe setup are essential before attempting heavy sets.

Is a 35kg dumbbell bench press good?

Yes, a 35kg dumbbell bench press is a strong lift and sits in advanced territory for men and in the elite strength athlete range for women. A pair of 35kg dumbbells (70kg total) pressed for 6-10 reps with strict form and full range of motion is a benchmark most adult men take two to three years of consistent training to reach. Many people will never be able to reach this level. Factors including muscle insertion points, limb to torso length ratio, and natural muscle fibre type mean that people better predisposed to endurance exercise will struggle to reach a 35kg dumbbell bench press. For adult women, 35kg dumbbells on bench press sit firmly in the elite strength bracket, achieved by a small percentage of dedicated strength athletes.
