Is pressing two 55kg dumbbells significantly better than a 2pl bench?
celebrity worship thread
absolutely brvtal mog
>dropping themyou didn't finish the set
>>77319834Impressive he didn't explode
>>77319834i hate fags that dont know how to properly put their weights on their lap
>>77319834Are you retarded? First off, dumbbell press is significantly more difficult than bench press. Second, 55kg= 121lbs. 121×2= 242lbs, 2pl8 = 45lbs×3 = 135lbs, if it's in euro standards it would be even lower weight. So, yes, retard, pressing two 55kg dumbbells is WAY better.
>>77319834It doesn't matter what he does considering he looks like that
his form sucks. he probably couldnt do more than 35kg with proper form.
>>77321298dont be jelly
>>77321287Except 2pl8 is 5 x 45lb
megamind aged poorly
>>77321287Dude its per side. 2 plates is 4 45s, 2 on each side plus bar.
>>77319834Why is it that he looks dyel but is able to lift more than the fit-looking guy in the background (albeit with difficulty).
>>77321399Dude behind him is tearing that 225 and did 2-3 shortened reps at the hardest part of the lift with ease. His 3rm is at least 120kg, he outlifts overgrown gollum
>>77321394>>77321337you don't count the bar, 2pl8 is only 180 lb
>>77321421>you don't count the barAh, so you just levitate the plates with your mind
>>77321421>>77321287Based. Do you count an invisible bar or the handles when lifting dumbbells ? No you dont. Same for barbell. The barbell is a tool to lift the discs and nothing more. When you put money in a wallet do you also count how much you wallet costs amongst your liquid net worth ?
>>77321427Also you don't count the bun when counting calories because it is just something that holds the hamburger and toppings together, and you don't count chicken legs either because they're just the things that hold the chicken up
>>77321421Then I'd say pressing 2 x 45 plates per arm is harder than pressing a 55kg dumbell per arm. Needs real balancing to keep the discs in place. Fingergains will be godtier.
>>77319834Man got a dome like tel aviv
>>77319834If those are really 55kg dumbbells then that guy must be like 7ft+ tallIm 5'7 and i bench the 45kg dumbbells and theyre huge
>>77319834Dumbbell bench press is equivalent to more or less 120% of a barbell bench press, so 110 kg dumbbell press is about equal to 132 kg with a barbell.
>>77319834Oof all shoulders on those.
>>77319834>not failingFail more
>>77322026>5'7AhahhahhahahahahhahahaStfu fag
>>77321287guaranteed replies
>>77323102hey man im 5'9" when i wear dress shoes okay??? >:(
>>77321421You only count the bar, retard.
I mean they say that dumbbells combined + 20kg bar weight is what db bench would transform to in barbell bench. In theory, in reality you can twist your technique much more with db and there's zero practical use for such "calculation". Might apply quite accurately for 2pl8 or lower tho.
>>77321433>He believes in imaginary calorie little men that come together by the thousand every day to make him fatLmao !Shiggy diggy
>>77321427Fucking retarded logic, but I cannot deny it's incredibly based
>>77319834No the only good thing is that u can naturally bring them together when u push up a little bit so it's easier to intuitively activate your pecs u look like a faggot I'm tired of pretending to like people fuck you
What an absolute retarded down syndrome abortion of a thread
