lunges with 2 dumbells or one barbell?

then i guess full squats are out of the question.

imo - dbs's are better.


..they for4ce more stabilizing action.....and in this case more IS better

lunges are an excellent exercise that is often lumped in with the "shaping" group. like concentration curls and cable work. i approach them like SQs and good mornings and work the hell out of them. and yes, you should be thinking of having 225 across your shoulders someday.

Mix it up... ok.

Benefits of a rear lunge vs a front/walking? Still working your glutes and quads... Is there a difference emphasis with one or the other? On what? The quads? Hamstings?

Im sure somewhere Im going to get shit for saying this, but I 'heard' Rev BB lunges & AFT squats (given) help with the roundage of the glutes. Since I respect the person that told me, I have added them to one of my leg days to give it a go, plus since I've never done them before last week since I thought I'd fall over.

I do agree with Shadow on the DBs.

Interesting. Roundage = Goodage

Thanks.

I cant do reverse lunges.......the weight I use makes if difficult at best

I will say that squatting like I have been has done wonders for building/lifting my booty ... I always hated squatting until recently

I have issues with balance......so I use DBs......

I used to do walking lunges with 70 lb barbell, got the done just right, BUT the burn on bootie is so much different with db...less weight BUT feel alot more burn because I concentrate muscle differently. How or why it happens???Beats me just feel better...and about Bunny's ATF squat...roundage...YES!!! I copied it and THERE is a differnece...LOL..pictures cannot lie...
