New review now live! Home gym equipment reviewer Jonas Malady spent about three weeks training with Dualbell before sharing his thoughts on where it fits, who it’s best suited for and how he plans to use it going forward.
What makes his perspective especially interesting is that Jonas already has a fully equipped shed gym—with barbells, weight plates and adjustable dumbbells. He doesn’t need Dualbell to replace his existing setup for compound lifts. Instead, he found that it added something different to his accessory training.
The natural rotation created a new dynamic during curls, triceps extensions and shoulder presses. His takeaway:
“Where I think this product shines the most is accessory movements.”

He enjoyed those movements enough that he said he’ll probably use Dualbell more often than his plates for EZ curls and triceps extensions.
Jonas also explains why Dualbell may be particularly valuable for apartment exercisers and people with smaller workout spaces: it lets you use the dumbbells you already own as weight on a standard 1-inch bar without purchasing and storing another collection of plates.
I appreciate that he took the time to put Dualbell through several weeks of training and share a thoughtful, balanced review—not simply an unboxing or first impression.
Thank you, Jonas, for putting Dualbell to work in the shed gym!
