FAQ
How do I choose between dumbbells and kettlebells for my training?
Dumbbells are great for controlled strength and hypertrophy work, while kettlebells excel at swings, flows, and full‑body conditioning; REP carries both in LB and KG to match your goals and space. For a deeper breakdown, see our kettlebell vs. dumbbell guide.
Should I get fixed or adjustable dumbbells for a home gym?
Fixed dumbbells are grab‑and‑go and fastest for supersets, while adjustable dumbbells save space and replace multiple pairs. REP offers QuickDraw™ and REP® x PÉPIN™ adjustable systems for compact, fast changes—compare them in REP® x PÉPIN™ vs. QuickDraw™ Adjustable Dumbbells.
What’s the difference between a medicine ball and a slam ball?
Medicine balls are built for throws and catches (often with some bounce), while slam balls are dead‑bounce and designed to absorb repeated high‑impact slams. Choose based on whether your workouts emphasize wall/partner throws or floor slams; REP offers both for strength, core, and conditioning.
How do I pick the right weight range for dumbbells or kettlebells?
Start with a light, medium, and heavy option relative to your current lifts, and make sure the increments allow steady progression; adjustable systems can cover a wide range in one set. REP’s lineup includes LB and KG options so you can match your training style and planned progress.
What battle rope length and thickness should I choose?
Longer and thicker ropes are heavier and more taxing, while shorter or thinner ropes fit smaller spaces and higher‑cadence intervals; 30–50 feet is common for home gyms. REP offers ropes in multiple specs plus strap and wall‑mount anchors to secure your setup safely.
