Trainer Luis Ayala and Dualbell Dumbbell Adapters Challenged Each Other

Trainer Luis Ayala and Dualbell Dumbbell Adapters Challenged Each Other

POV: “Dualbell… It Works!” — Trainer Luis Ayala Wraps Up His Trial

Some trainers need a long explanation to opine after trying a new piece of equipment.
Luis Ayala didn’t.

After running through multiple exercises — bench press, deadlift variations, squats, curls, and landmine movements — Luis summed up his Dualbell trial in one simple line:

“Dualbell… it works!”

And he meant it.


A Full Workout With One Simple Idea

Luis tested Dualbell across a full range of barbell-style movements, using the dumbbells he already had in the gym  at Studio In the Heights in Manhattan. With each exercise, he got the same thing:

  • Solid bar feel

  • Smooth movement

  • Balanced load

  • Barbell mechanics without plates

Dualbell lets you perform barbell training anywhere you can store dumbbells — whether that’s a garage, basement, personal training studio, or small home gym.

Why It Works for Trainers

Dualbell is built from high-performance Zytel® Nylon 66, a metal-replacement material trusted in automotive and aerospace parts.
It’s strong, lightweight, and designed to take repeated use from serious lifters.

For trainers like Luis, the biggest win is versatility:
One pair of dumbbells + Dualbell = a full barbell setup.

That means more exercises, more programming options for challenging client sessions, and less equipment clutter.

A Simple Verdict From a Professional

Some gear looks good on social media but falls apart in real life.
Dualbell holds up — rep after rep, exercise after exercise.

Luis tested it.
He pushed it.
And his final take says everything:

“Dualbell… it works!”
