Stark Dumbbell Reviews

by Drakenn

How do you make a dumbbell workout app with no way to keep track of what weight you used?? Great, you can build workouts and keep track of a score, but without the simple concept of tracking your actual weight StarkDumbbell is useless

There is another app by the same developer with dumbbells, stretches, warmups, etc for free with the option to upgrade. It’s called the Virtual Trainer Pro All In One. Try that before you waste money here like I did on something they are offering for free... 🤦🏻‍♀️

For the money I thought there would be more options for different exercises. I keep looking for another page of exercises. Like where are upright rows just to name one basic exercise?

So it looks clean. Setting up workouts is not hard, and I like that you can set time or reps

However - that is where the good ends

What is the most basic need in a dumbbell program? Probably tracking weight. I cannot seem to find it, but it is so fundamental I must be missing it.

Also, there is no way to add your own exercises, so you cannot add something even as basic as push-ups or pull ups to your routine.

A good foundation, but looking at the age of StarkDumbbell - if these basics have not been added yet, they probably never will be

First day using it, and I worked up a sweat. I am trying to shed some pounds I packed on over the years and gain some muscle back as well. Overall, it has a clean, professional-looking interface and it is certainly customizable. The biggest downfall for the novice is the lack of pre-designed workout sessions. But, it does have a filter that allows you to select a body area of focus, and it displays the appropriate exercises for you to add to the workout. So, the lack of a pre-fab workout shouldn't dissuade you from trying StarkDumbbell . Additionally, I didn't see any option to add my own exercises, but it's not a huge issue to me.

Hi,

I've been using StarkDumbbell for a week and a half, and these are the things I see good and bad on it:

Good:
1- You can set your training to be tabata, hit or standard. It also provides you with a timer and videos to keep form and focus while working out.
2- You can create your own trainings.
3- They provide a full body map so you can select excs based on group muscle.
4- They have an ok amount of excs included.

Bad:
1- StarkDumbbell is good for a month or two. Just like on any gym you will need to rotate your program every month or so, and the amount of excs they offer is limited if you are looking to use StarkDumbbell long term.
2- If the developers invest on it and provide periodical updates with additional excs, then I think StarkDumbbell is a keeper but we will need to wait and see...

I personally would like to see new updates instead of looking for a new app to purchase.

Thanks!

I am using StarkDumbbell for a whole body workout routine. It's easy to use and navigate. I recommend StarkDumbbell for beginners or those returning to weightlifting.

Helped me diversify my workout. Hitting different muscle groups.

Use a bunch of the apps together to make workouts; all are terrific.

Like a good coach; just trying to keep up. Can feel the pain but goes by quick

I love the Tabata option. I can gain and lean out! The Tabata is a great filler in between heavy days and I can use it for rest weeks. Great program guys!

I am barely starting out to workout again but with a set of Dumbbells and this application, it becomes a real breeze.

by Keillorface

Today was my first day but I loved it - built my own split body routines to mix with my running (trying to out Run Mother Nature ~ I'm old)! Anyway I loved the Tabata option!

This is my favorite workout app. I was sad to see it’s not on Apple TV yet. There are few dumbbell workout apps on there, and none as good as this one.

Never had the follow through with my home work outs, but with this it feels like a personal trainer is there pushing me. And I'm seeing great results.

First time using it, had a great workout. I didn't have to think about the next thing that I was doing. And I didn't have to worry that I was taking an excessive break. Great app!!!

I think StarkDumbbell is great for doing dumbbell workouts properly and recording them across other apps really helps me track my fitness.
