You can start light and gradually increase the weight as you get stronger. This makes the system ideal for both beginners and dedicated athletes who want to keep progressing.But which option best fits your training goals? To help you decide, we’ve clearly outlined the differences and benefits for you.

First: How does the Rapid system work?

The Tunturi Rapid system is specially developed for athletes who want to progress, but don’t have space for a full home gym. The system is compact, modern and designed to take up minimal space.


Each set consists of three core components:

  • A sturdy handle

  • Weight screws

  • Separate weight plates


All components are made of durable iron, giving the products a solid and reliable grip. The biggest advantage? You can adjust the weight quickly and smoothly. This allows you to easily make your workout more challenging when exercises start to feel easier. That way you keep pushing yourself and continue to get stronger.

Rapid Dumbbell

The Tunturi Rapid Dumbbell is ideal for targeted muscle training, also known as isolation training. This means you focus on training one muscle group at a time and give it extra attention.


What exercises can you do with a dumbbell?

  • Bicep curls (arms)

  • Shoulder press (shoulders)

  • Dumbbell lunges (legs)

  • Chest press (chest)

  • Side raises (shoulders)

Because you train with one dumbbell, you work each side of the body separately. This helps reduce strength imbalances between your left and right side. Want to train both arms at the same time? Then you can choose to use two dumbbells.


Choose the dumbbell if:

  • You want to build muscle in a targeted way

  • Control during your exercises is important

  • You want to increase your strength step by step

Rapid Kettlebell

The Tunturi Rapid Kettlebell is perfect for functional training. This means performing movements that resemble everyday activities such as lifting, rotating and extending.


What exercises can you do with a kettlebell?

  • Kettlebell swings (legs, glutes and conditioning)

  • Goblet squats (legs)

  • Clean & press (shoulders and arms)

  • Core exercises (abs)


Kettlebell workouts often include dynamic movements. These are exercises where you move fluidly, sometimes with speed or explosive power. You train multiple muscle groups at the same time and often increase your heart rate as well.


Choose the kettlebell if:

  • You want to combine strength and conditioning

  • You enjoy active and varied workouts

  • You like short, explosive training sessions

Rapid Barbell

The Tunturi Rapid Barbell is designed for compound training. Compound exercises are movements where multiple muscle groups work together to perform the exercise.


What exercises can you do with a barbell?

  • Squats (legs and glutes)

  • Deadlifts (back and legs)

  • Bench press (chest and arms)

  • Barbell rows (back)


For example, during a squat you use your legs, glutes and core at the same time. This makes compound exercises efficient and highly effective for building strength.


Choose the barbell if:

  • You want to build maximum strength

  • You want to train with heavier weights

  • You want to target multiple large muscle groups at once

Combined: The Complete Rapid Set

Can’t choose? You don’t have to. With the complete Tunturi Rapid Series you combine:

  • The dumbbell for targeted muscle development

  • The kettlebell for functional and dynamic training

  • The barbell for compound strength training


Would you like to store everything neatly and keep your training space organized? The Tunturi Rapid Dumbbell Stand is a practical addition. It helps keep your workout area tidy and safe.


Why choosing all three might be the smartest option

Not sure whether to focus on muscle growth, strength or conditioning? With all three tools you don’t have to compromise. You can combine isolation training with compound exercises and dynamic workouts. This keeps your training varied and allows you to keep progressing.


For anyone who wants to train seriously, has limited space and still wants maximum versatility, the complete Rapid set is often the most complete solution.

 

In short, the Tunturi Rapid Series offers a complete and versatile workout solution that suits every athlete and their training goals.
