Why does a iron dumbell feel heavier than polymer dumbell of same weight?
In: 0
I’m not going to discuss iron/polymer, just different dumbbells.
The distribution of the weight matters. Is it more concentrated on one? They changed the balance significantly.
The thickness of the handle. Or any kind of grip/knurling on the handle. Generally thicker handles are harder to grip, making the movement harder.
The quality/accuracy. One might be new, 20kg+/- 0.01kg. the other might be old and bashed and definitely out of calibration.
