Consistent workouts are good for your physical and mental health. That being said, finding the time to exercise on top of a busy schedule can be tricky. Rather than hitting the gym equipment at your local facility, you can save time by building a home gym, which allows more flexibility for getting in a workout.
Furnishing a home gym can be an investment, but we've found an awesome fitness deal at Walmart. The price of the FitRx SmartBell Adjustable Dumbbell has been rolled back from $196 to only $98. This single piece of gym equipment can perform as 15 different sets of dumbbells with combinations ranging from 5 to 52 pounds.

With a similar design to the BowFlex model, this option is hundreds of dollars less than its name-brand competitor. While more affordable than the competition, reviewers raved about the construction of the model with over 3,000 five-star ratings. Many noted the comparison between the two, like this person who wrote, "I love these weights. The ability to have multiple dumbbells in a compact selectable size is awesome. I thought at first doing goblin squats with these would be cumbersome, but not at all. Very sturdy assembly, great wide grip, and smooth selection action with a sturdy storage tray. Also, half the cost of a Bowflex dumbbell."
One reviewer spoke of their experience working out with the dumbbells, "Wow! So much better than expected. Works great. Feels solid and stable. Used for bench presses, bicep and forearm curls, and triceps presses — everything a normal dumbbell would be used for and I only need one to move from 5 to 55 pounds. Love that this is so compact for all the different weights it covers."
One of the biggest advantages of using the FitRX SmartBell is its space-saving design. One person said, "Super easy to use. Super easy to change just by rotating the handle on the dumbbell. Very well constructed and super useful to save space." Another said, "Fast and easy to adjust to increase weight. Excellent for saving space but still able to have sets of dumbbells to work with. Great investment for those who like working out."
We don't know how long the FitRx SmartBell Adjustable Dumbbell will be on sale for just $98, so don't sweat missing out on this great deal and add it to your cart now.
