Save on dumbbells of all shapes and sizes—including coveted adjustable sets.

If you're working out at home, you're going to need a good set of dumbbells. It's one piece of equipment that's pretty much necessary to make progress against your strength training goals without heading out to the gym. In fact, if used correctly, you may not need much else on hand.

“There’s a reason dumbbells are in every single big-box gym,” says Men's Health fitness director Ebenezer Samuel, C.S.C.S., who created an arm-focused muscle-building program, All Out Arms, based heavily around dumbbells. “If you want targeted muscle—and that’s what all guys want—then you want dumbbells.”

The weights are ideal for upper body work like presses, pulls, curls, and more, and they're much easier to wield than long, heavy barbells. They come in many different styles and weight ranges, and many sets are even adjustable—meaning that there's a dumbbell out there for all abilities and goals. Practically speaking, they also take up very little space and are relatively cost-efficient, making them perfect for anyone who's limited on space or doesn't want to shell out thousands for a full home gym setup.

Speaking of cost efficiency, January is a great time to shop for a fresh set of dumbbells. Thanks to the hype around New Year's fitness resolutions, so many brands and retailers (think NordicTrack, Bowflex, Tempo, and more) are running their biggest sales of the year to help all of us smash those goals without breaking the bank. You're sure to find a great deal right now—whether you're looking for a standard set of fixed dumbbells, heavy-duty adjustable dumbbells, an affordable dumbbell-barbell set, or upgrading your gear to the latest and greatest smart equipment.

The Tempo Move is way more than a set of weights. It comes in the form of a storage hub that houses 35 pounds of weight plates, a 3D sensor to track your movement and give feedback, and guided workouts that stream to your TV or iPhone. The small footprint means that it can easily fit anywhere, perfect for small space dwellers who don't have room for lots of gym equipment.

Bowflex's SelectTech adjustable dumbbells go even heavier, with the option to adjust from 10 to 90 pounds. The adjustments come in 5-pound increments, so there's a bit more of a jump between each setting. They also feature weight selection dials that are smooth and user-friendly. If you're looking for a heavy set, this deal is not to be missed.

Looking for one reliable set of fixed dumbbells with a solid weight? Your search ends here. These rubber-encased hex dumbbells are one of the most popular options on Amazon for good reason. The hexagon shape makes for easy storage and stops them from rolling around during workouts, while the rubber casing protects your floors. Ergonomic chrome handles fit your hands comfortably and the textured finish will ensure a tight grip. These are the best of both worlds: affordable and built to last.

Jaxjox DumbbellConnect™ is the first-ever digital dumbbell set (so the company claims) that can automatically adjust your dumbbell weights with the touch of a button. Say goodbye to finicky knobs, dials, and handles. Each dumbbell adjusts in 6-pound increments from 8 to 50 pounds. They're $300 off at Dick's Sporting Goods right now—the lowest price we've seen them.

Each of these Powerblock dumbbells range from 5-50 pounds, but if you outgrow them, you can purchase add-on kits to expand them to either 70 or 90 pounds each. Men's Health fitness editors love how durable these are. They are made of welded steel, so can withstand just about anything—even being dropped from several feet in the air after a set of heavy presses, squats, or curls.

This set comes with a 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25-pound pair of dumbbells, 10 weights in total, that fit securely into a durable iron rack. It's perfect if you want full a set of fixed dumbbells but don't want to splurge (or take up an entire wall in your home). Plus, these have all the benefits of standard rubber encased hexagon dumbbells—they won't roll around and are easy on floors.

The adjustable dumbbell set from Core Home Fitness ranges from 5 to 50 pounds each. You're able to adjust the weight in 5-pound increments just by twisting the handle. They also come with a compact and lightweight aluminum cradle for easy storage.

Ativafit's dumbbells are among the most popular adjustable dumbbells available on Amazon. They come in a few different models with a wide weight range—from 21.5 pounds each to 71.5 pounds each. This is the 71.5-pound dumbbell, their heaviest, and it's currently 15 percent off.

Neoprene dumbbells are great for lightweight workouts or for supplementing other training, like cardio. Keep these next to your exercise bike to engage your upper body during your next ride, or bring along a light pair to challenge yourself next time you head out on a run.

If you're looking for a set of adjustable dumbbells on a budget, this set is the way to go. It comes with 88 total pounds of weights, two dumbbells and a barbell for maximum customization. Just keep in mind that adjusting the weight on this set won't be quite as easy as it is with a more premium adjustable dumbbell—it uses an old-school manual twist-on lock.
