Im thinking of switching from barbells to dumbells for chest. Im really strong at barbell presses, but pretty damn weak at using dumbells because I never really used them for presses. Will I lose strength on the barbell if I start using dumbells for a few months? Thanks. |

I found that when I switched to DB's for a while, my BB strength increased. I also feel I get a better workout using DBs as opposed to the bar.

no u won't u will most likley gain strenght or stay the same. Since each arm is independed you will work the lagging area of your chest. The way i do is incline db followed by flat barbell and then i switch it up. flat db and incline barbell. It works pretty good. Keeping reps in the 6 reps.

DB's call in a different bunch of support muscles, you'll see results in your lifts. don't forget "incline" the best chest buster there is. DB or BB IMHO
