Dumbbells are the best way to exercise
The deadlift is an action that can mobilize almost all the muscles of the body to participate in the work, so it occupies an indispensable position for both muscle gain and fat loss and shaping!
There are two main categories of deadlifts, dumbbells and barbells, as well as hex bar deadlifts. Today I will explain to you the difference between dumbbells and barbells and the advantages and disadvantages of the method.
Barbell deadlift
As shown in the figure above, the feet are shoulder-width apart or slightly wider than the shoulders, and the knees are in the same direction as the toes, and cannot be buckled inward. The width of the arms that naturally droop is the grip distance. The entire spine is in a neutral position, with the chest raised and the abdomen tucked, but be careful not to over-lift the chest.
When the force is started, use the strength of the hip leg to drive the barbell to pull up. Exhale as you exert force and inhale as you lower. Don't move too fast.
Dumbbell deadlift
The action points of the dumbbell deadlift are exactly the same as above.
So let's take a look at the essential differences and advantages between the two?
Angle of force lines.
The line of force of the barbell is farther away from the core, and the line of force of the dumbbell is closer to the core.
The conclusion is that dumbbells put less pressure on the lumbar spine. People who have suffered injuries to their lower back and lower back can choose dumbbells appropriately.
Stability. Because most people are accompanied by varying degrees of pelvic tilt and scoliosis of the spine, the barbell belongs to a fixed grip distance, and there will not be too much shaking in the process, while the dumbbell is more shaking.
Conclusion: If your balance is not stable well, choose a barbell.
Weight aspect. Because the barbell has the blessing of stability, under certain conditions, using the barbell to do a deadlift can increase the weight by 20% more than the dumbbell.
Dumbbells are safer and barbells are more effective. Choose dumbbells for injuries and diseases, and choose barbells for health. Dumbbells are more convenient and barbells are more solid. How to choose? Leave me a message.
