>db bench builds the chest better than bb bench >strengthens stabilizers >destroys imbalances that bb bench couldn't >less chance of shoulder impingement due to more ROM and more freedom on where you can move the weights
If you're not a powerlifter, or are lifting for aesthetics, bb bench is USELESS
Please tell me this is bait. I can't believe someone is actually this fucking dumb

>not knowing that most people typically have a dominant side which is slightly stronger than their non dominant side >this side compensates slightly by doing a bit more work than the weaker side, causing a positive feedback loop of weakness
Don't post here until you've at least lifted for 3 years, DYEL.

I'd start doing these instead of bb bench for the extra ROM, but I don't want to deal with 110lb+ dumbbells in each hand. It seems way to easy to hurt yourself and difficult to get into a good starting position
Luke Thompson
just lift lighter
it's difficult to get into a good position because ur stabilizers weak
Chase Morgan
DB Bench fucks up my shoulder everytime, what am i doing wrong
Matthew Ortiz
If I lift lighter then I'm not getting a sufficient workout, and my stabilizers are fine, it s just that tossing heavy dumbbells around while trying to lay back and then get back up adds a significant and inefficient workload to the lift
Luke Anderson
Squeeze your shoulderblades together and tuck your elbows
Cameron Jones
sup boyos, here is top tier db bench set up routine: >get dbs from rack and on to your bench >when ready to go, lift both and sit down so that the dbs are sitting in your lap >lie back, dbs should automatically fall into perfect position >when done, drop dbs to either side of you >lift them back on to bench then rest for next set >repeat
beautiful, don't be a chode that damages their back trying to do a sit up holding 90lbs dbs

If your chest is not growing from bench press, then your form is wack and/or you're not eating enough. Even low rep bench press gives me a huge chest pump.

I saw someone snap their peck using dumbbell bench press. Fuck that shit barbell all the way mofo

I have an agreement at my gym that I don't do bb bench as i train alone without a spotter but am allowed to do db press. Personally much prefer db press as you can go deeper and really stretch the chest and also i find it easier to focus on the pecs when lifting this way
Aaron Parker
I'm actually training for aesthetics. I use bench press as my strength builder at the start of my chest workout. It never fails to give me a good pump. I can really feel my chest working.

>tfw gym has a no singles policy
Jaxson Thomas
I can do 205 5x5 on bb incline but only 85s on db incline, so I guess bb for strength and db for a pump and more stabilizer incorporation

Just suspend the dumbbells from your cage using cord bro. Get their height right and you can just get into position and go go go.
Luis Price
i can't go anywhere near as heavy so i just do light db bench to warm up for bb bp.
Leo Parker
Is it good to do BB bench for strenght and db bench for hypertrophy?
Logan Gomez
Yes. That's what I do. Make sure to do your inclines too.

>removing pretty much all the tricep and shoulder work in the movement makes you feel it in your chest more
rly makes me think
Ryan Perry
dis nigga needs a chopper to air drop his dumbbels lmao
Jason Turner
>he benches to train his shoulders
Michael Gray
I do incline bb bench for hypertrophy, it has been giving me good results, but is incline db bench better?
Elijah Young
You stand in front of the bench shrug/clean the bells to your shoulders, sit down, lean back and you're good to go.
