I like to rotate dumbbells with barbells when I stall in a certain lift. Seems to work for me
home gym here.
I don't have enough weight to put onto dumbbells to make an effective squat/deadlift.

You cant do heavy compound movements with dumbbells. Compounds give the most muscle mass per movement.

You can do literaly every compound movement with dumbbells.

He didn't say you can't do compounds fuck head. You can't do actual heavy compounds with dumbbells. But please try to do a 5 pl8 deadlift with dumbbells.
>>35479292
I do dumbbell press instead of bench because I don't have a spotter. It's just the reasonable thing to do if you're trying to go heavy.
>>35479292
Trying to clean large dumbbell weights into position is just asking for an injury

God I hate this dude's face so much I wish I could punch it

They're a pain in the ass to work with in a way that doesn't destroy your shoulders.
Barbell adds stabilization in a way that lets you do more work.
More work = more muscle.

Heavy was the keyword... If you can squat 140kg with dumbbells then good for you, think ill stick with the bar
>>35479512
Rear leg elevated split squats & t-bar swings (load it with at least 110+lbs) are a great alternative...

Dont use clips and youll be fine benching without a spotter. I got up to 100kg bench from beginner without a spotter
