Dumbbell Icon Generator

What the dumbbell icon means

Exercise, strength training or a workout. The most direct fitness symbol available.

Health icons need to be read correctly under stress, which raises the bar on clarity. The class divides into clinical symbols, which signal professional care, and wellness symbols, which signal self-directed activity — and users treat those two groups quite differently. Most of these icons are detail-heavy, combining an outer form with an interior mark, so at small sizes it is usually better to keep the outer shape alone than to preserve a pulse line or a cross inside it.

Where you will actually see it

• workout logging and program selection
• gym and class booking
• app icons for fitness products

Drawing the dumbbell at 16 pixels

The bar between the two weight stacks is thin and horizontal. Thicken it or the icon reads as two separate blocks.

Stroke weight is the control that matters most here. Lucide icons are drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2px stroke, which means that when the icon is scaled down to 16px the stroke is effectively 1.33px — below one device pixel on a standard-density display. Raising the stroke to 2.5 or 3 before exporting keeps the shape solid; lowering it to 1.5 suits large app icons where a heavy stroke looks clumsy. The editor exposes this as a slider, so you can find the value that survives your smallest target size rather than guessing.

Using it in code

If you want the icon in a Vue project rather than as a downloaded asset, it is a named export of the lucide package:

import { Dumbbell } from 'lucide-vue-next'

<Dumbbell :size="24" :stroke-width="2" />

The download button above gives you something different: the icon composed onto a background with a corner radius, exported as a flat SVG path set. The exporter converts the icon out of its <foreignObject> wrapper first, because a foreign object taints an HTML canvas and would otherwise break PNG and ICO rasterisation.
