50kg Dumbbell + Gym Glove + JX Incline Decline Bench

Buying a home gym piece by piece takes months and usually ends half-finished. This 50kg dumbbell and bench combo arrives as one order with everything you need to train your whole body from day one.

What comes in the 50kg dumbbell and bench combo

• A 50 kg weight set, usable as a pair of dumbbells or joined into a barbell
• A JX incline / decline adjustable bench with a built-in dumbbell rack
• A pair of half-finger gym gloves

Those three items cover pressing, pulling, squatting, deadlifting and core work. There is very little in a commercial gym you cannot approximate with them.

The 50kg set

The real advantage of a 50 kg set over fixed dumbbells is that it converts. Load the two short bars for dumbbell work, or join them into a barbell for deadlifts, rows and squats.

As a result you get two pieces of equipment out of one purchase, and you can keep redistributing the plates as your strength changes rather than buying heavier dumbbells every few months.

The adjustable bench

The JX bench adjusts through incline, flat and decline. Incline shifts the press to your upper chest and shoulders, flat covers the standard press, and decline reaches the lower chest that a flat bench never quite does.

It also carries a dumbbell rack, so the weights live on the bench rather than on your floor. Meanwhile the decline position makes sit-ups considerably harder, which is useful once bodyweight crunches stop doing anything.

The gloves

Half-finger gloves protect your palms from the knurling on a loaded bar without cutting off your feel for it. Your fingers stay free, so grip and dexterity are unaffected.

A starting routine

Three days a week is enough. Day one: bench press, incline press, dumbbell flyes. Day two: deadlifts, rows, curls. Day three: squats, shoulder press, decline sit-ups.

Three sets of eight to twelve on each, adding weight when the last set stops being hard. Therefore you have a complete programme without a single subscription.

Who this combo suits

Anyone building a first home gym, and anyone who has been meaning to for two years. It also suits households where the equipment has to be shared, since the weight redistributes in seconds.

Common questions

Can I use the 50kg dumbbell and bench set as a barbell?

Yes. The set joins into a barbell for deadlifts, rows and squats, and splits back into dumbbells afterwards.

Does the bench do decline as well as incline?

Yes. It adjusts through incline, flat and decline, and includes a dumbbell rack.

Is 50 kg enough to start?

For almost everyone, yes. Split across two dumbbells it covers pressing and curling for a long time, and it is plenty as a starting barbell load.
