Dumbbell racks are an absolute necessity for anyone with a home gym area or for someone starting up a huge gym. Weights scattered around a floor are dangerous, inconvenient, and are a real eyesore. From workout fanatics and fitness freaks down to newbies and no-muscled neophytes, dumbbell racks really make working out much more accessible. Dumbbells are a type of free weight (as opposed to plate weights, which are attached to bars, and are then called barbells). Dumbbells come in various sizes and shapes, and most importantly, in an array of different weights. Get those off the floor, you dumbbell! And get a dumbbell rack!
Workouts
* '''Flat Bench''': With dumbbells firmly in hand, lay flat on a workout bench and press upwards in line with your chest.
* '''Incline Bench''': Take your dumbbells and lay on an angle on a bench at about a 45ยบ angle. Bring the weights down towards your chest, then press them back upwards.
* '''Curls''': Line your bench up vertically, like a seat. Hold the free weights down by your side then lift them up towards your shoulders. Holding and twisting the weights in different ways will develop different parts of your arm muscles.
* '''Shoulder Press''': Keeping the bench in a seat-like position, press dumbbells straight upwards over your head, then carefully lower them down to your shoulders.
* '''Rows''': Place two dumbbells on either side of a bench in the flat position. With your left hand and left knee on the bench, grab a weight with your right hand and lift it up towards your body. Alternate and repeat.
