The Bowflex SelectTech 560 Dumbbells are the world's first-ever smart dumbbells, offering a fully interactive experience to work out harder and smarter. Equipped with the company's proprietary 3DT™ sensor, the Bowflex SelectTech 560 Dumbbells are the only home strength product with built-in brains to guide users through exercises while tracking reps, sets, calories burned, and providing feedback on form.

The Bowflex SelectTech 560 Dumbbells stood out among 5,214 submissions, capturing the Red Dot Award jury's attention for the product's innovation, functionality, ergonomics and durability. Only 1.5 percent of all products entered are recognized with the Red Dot: Best of the Best distinction. Since it was established in 1955, the Red Dot Award ranks among the most renowned design competitions in the world.

The Bowflex SelectTech 560 Dumbbells' compact design reduces the number of separate dumbbells from 32 down to only two - making them the perfect addition to any home gym. Changing the weights is as easy as twisting the handle. Users can track workouts and set goals using a free 3DT app for their smartphone. Once the app has been downloaded, users can sync the app with Apple Health, Google Fit, MyFitnessPal and UA Record. The 3DT app also comes with 70 preloaded step-by-step workout videos.
