I'm trying to understand two exercises. First is this one.
OK, it's a squat, but what is the point of using the dumbbells like this?

There is no point unless you have some very weird extreme balance issue
If you can front raise your squat weight you're not squatting, you're doing a front raise and happen to do a squat movement at the same time
Your shoulders will tire out before your squat is even at 10% of intensity so the muscle stimulus is as low as when you walk up the stairs

The second exercise I saw one guy doing it at the gym.
Imagine a guy pulling his pants up, but it's two dumbbells instead and he's trying to pull them to his armpits with his elbows like in the picture. What is this for?

If you watch the video, you'll see she throws the weights to counterbalance her own weight during the squat. I'm not saying it's right, it's just sort of a different thing.

Side delt rows

Thank you very much.
>>
>>76951890
completely off topic but if you get a pump in one muscle group and then work another, do you take away from the pump from the first muscle group? like if i get a back pump then hit biceps is my body drawing blood from my back?
>>
>>76951927
It's still a front raise
Doing a goblet squat should provide plenty balance
That video is ridiculous anyway it's not strength training it's not hypertrophy training it's just moving shit around at random, making up movements for the sake of it just to be different
Avoid nonsense like this

>It's still a front raise
Clearly using momentum, just like those crossfit homes doing retarded pull ups.
>>
>>76951890
Counterweight plus some very marginal delt work. You shouldn’t need a counterweight to squat because it sort of defeats the purpose

well yeah

of course bot, u wouldn't ever put moral value onto exercise xD
OF COURSE it's the right thing to do, her thighs are BALANCED, there is no undue load on adductors nor gluteus medius like with regular squat, knees point straight to the front unlike regular squat
extended thoracic and load on scapula and therefore serratus anterior with protracted shoulder also make it totally unlike regular squat

You fell for the bait lmfao hook, line and sinker
>>
>>76952134
the body works in different ways and just because it isnt in your nerdy book doesnt mean it does nothing. that woman isnt trying to build hypertrophy its for toning and calorie burning. youre a stupid fuck.
>>
>>76951890
This does nothing
Use a bar, load it and go deeper

>>76952861
>You fell for the bait lmfao hook, line and sinker
no bot, i actually find rather stimulating when u throw useful movements at me to laugh them off awkwardly with your fake robotized traffic blabberings
>>76952852
>>>76941063
this was AWESOME bot :D i am doing it, my posture improves, my delts grow - all good things :D

only ohp is remotely close to this except in ohp u're keeping the weight as close to your center of mass as possible at all times cause u're lifting tha weight like an retard

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this is something completely else, u're supposed to have weight in front of you and u're not gonna kiss the poor sob u're strangling, u're gonna gloat at your power and his powerlessness
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gSgg7kMVxAA
yes, this is it, no lumbar support either, just sit and make triangle like the picture i am providing and do not press out all the way and don't go all the way down
keep shoulders down and out, keep extended thoracic and flexed abs as u are leaning backwards, double chin for cervical spine

>but that bald literal sodomite, he's a clown
he is not, he's an asset, actor of sort and in this particular case he is employed to ridicule the exercise, it's awesome strength and postural motion

seated position promotes proper spine and scapula alignment, shoulder is open and doesn't impinge, it's great, i love it :D
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i already do psoas thingie wherein i'm placing item on the floor as far as i can reach standing on both legs and then pick it up with other hand, i will try the squat u intended to laugh off as well bot :D looks like good lil warm-up :D

Toning doesnt exist and it's not effective cardio either.
>>
>>76951890
I keep seeing DYELs lately doing it in my gym and some retards posting it online
It's kinda funny and sad at the same time because i imagine that if i didn't have proper guidance and judgement i would probably spinning my wheels and trash like that as well
It's like a power clean that you can't even progress
>>
>>76952864
Holy shit this is the most retarded reply of the year I've read on /fit/, and that's saying something
>>
It's so she doesn't keel over backwards without the counterweight.
>>
>>76952864
