I especially love the adjustable
dumbbell set because it takes up so little space but has so much functionality.

There was a point in time when, in order to properly warm up for my barbell work, I had to use
dumbbells,
because my work
sets were just the bar and it was HEAVY!
Doing one or two
sets every day I got really strong within few weeks but my problem is
because I train in my garage with just a limited amount of Weight with adjustable
Dumbbells, I was limited to adding reps so instead I started doing multiple
sets with the same weight such as the famous 5 x 5 but instead I do 5 x 20 - 30, this way it's going to take longer to achieve all
sets with the same weight.
Yes, I'm using 10 - lbs again, but that's
because I only have one
set of
dumbbells in my apartment.
I grabbed the 95 pound
dumbbells and did 8 good reps followed by the four forced negative reps. I used this same weight for the second
set but I was only able to get 3 forced negative reps
because the muscles gave out and failed on this
set.
I like this exercise
because it's possible to use heavy weights and still do high reps.. Most top bodybuilders can use a 140 or 150 pound
dumbbell for
sets of 12 to 15 reps. I recommend
sets of 12 to 20 reps.
