DB or BB? what is the advantage?
« on: February 27, 2011, 08:55:27 PM »
other than BB squats what is the training advantage to using a barbell of dumbells recruit so many more muscle fibers to stabilize?  is the weight difference that much that training with a BB is really any better?  discuss..

 You're just having flashbacks from when your Daddy raped you in Okinawa on the military base.

 The red light district shut down for the day, he couldn't get a whore, he was drunk and stressed out from the drill sergeant yelling in his face, one thing led to another.....

Have you tried front squating with kettlebells? Thats an alternative excersice if youre bored of regular squats.

I prefer training with barbells - more weight moved overall.

Both have their advantages. Barbell lifts allow you to go as heavy as you like 1-4rm, obviously they can still be used for higher rep range work as well. Doing a 1rm on say the DB press isn't that productive since you spend so much energy getting them into position. I love barbells on the big movements, presses, squats, deadlifts, rows. When I get into my assistance work I like to use db's because at that point my reps are higher and I am focusing on feeling the muscle work rather than just moving as much weight as I can.

theres no db or bb................. you use both, they lend themselves better to different movements

to a certain extent i guess. for example, most gyms dont have a hammer-curls barbell, so in order to do those youd have to use dumbells. but generally speaking, barbell>dumbell because you can use more weight.
