>Seems like it would solve all the problems of the barbell deadlift,
How so?
Less injury to the back. Barbell deadlift is a more awkward position from the front while dumbbell deadlift would be more to the sides.
That's basically a trap bar deadlift, except made retarded with dumbbells. You dumbass newgay.
Just go deadlift and stop being such a dyel pussy for once in your life.
No its not retard you hold the dbs so they move up inline with the centere of legs, not to the side.
What the fuck are you talking about.
When db deadlifting you hold the dbs infront of your legs close to them and move them up dead centre of the legs when doing the dl motion to top of lift then back down so the each weight is roughly inline with centre of each leg infront then back up etc, you dont deadlift with the dbs by your side. They are held infront of you against your body .
Like this? That's the same exact motion of a conventional deadlift. You changed nothing. The barbell is kept close to you and in fact should be dragging across your shins and thighs.
Yeah thats a db deadlift, you have better freedom of movement with dbs. Its not weights to the side of the body,thats called something else.
>le freedom of movement
Explain why that is in any way a benefit in definitive terms.
Because the BAR isnt supporting and helping stabalize the weight, its all your core legs back and abs etc as each weight is independant of eachother. Bar is for lifting heavier weights because its easier to lift heavier weights with a bar.
Seems really easy to drop the DBs on your feet
>Less injury to the back
Why dont you train your back with a back extension or deadlift
>gyms where deadlifting is not allowed
imagine being this cucked. Unless its a free gym membership you should be allowed to use gym equipment to work out
how do people like you post this kind of shit without thinking about it for 5 seconds and what's wrong with it?
my gym doesn't have +100kg dumbbells
>gym doesn't allow deadlifting
>same gym has 100kg+ dumbbells
?????
My fav is straight leg db deadlifts.
I do DB RDLs. Much like regular RDLs you have to use straps to get a good stimulus.
Last time I checked my DB RDL to conventional deadlift ratio is 0.67
If you do 30 reps, which is the highest amount of reps you can do and still get muscle gains, with 100lbs in each arm, it's like 50% of your 1RM so in terms of conventional I'd say it's around 600lbs.
I like to start the movement with the dumbbells at my side and as I go down I rotate them towards the front, not sure if it does anything but it feels right.
This moron is using straps on dumbbells, holy shit, this is who is calling you dyel on fit
So your hamstrings and glutes are weaker than your grip is what you're telling me. Sad
Both bar and db are good but if I had to choose id choose db, as im not a powerlifter and dont care about mega heavy weight which is what bar is for.
>How come I never see anyone talk about the dumbbell deadlift?
because theres not a lot of women on the board
Also if you had symmetry issues, muscle imbalances bar will make them worse while db will fix them over time
So best if both would be doing your sets heavy with bar and then finishing with db sets to failure suicide or dropset style...
