 First question is from Jess x 207. How do you feel about at-home workouts with only dumbbells? Do you think you can get the same results as a gym? You can get excellent results at home With just dumbbells like phenomenal results the only kind people that I think might suffer from just using dumbbells Are people are really advanced? Who are lifting really really heavy with barbell exercises and because they aren't doing the barbell exercises? They may lose some strength not necessarily because they lose muscle but rather because they're not practicing the skill of a specific exercise But honestly if you know as a trainer I used to tell my clients this all the time If you have a pair of dumbbells and an adjustable bench, I could give you a phenomenon. That's all I needed It's all I ever needed to train clients to train most people so you can get phenomenal results doing that in fact All of our programs have an at-home version now So like let's say you do maps anabolic or maps aesthetic for example You go in there. There's a dumbbell only version so you could follow the whole program at home with just dumbbells The only person that suffers is a powerlifter Yeah, if somebody's very specific that needs to be good at barbell lifts in order to excel in their sport That's the only person you can build an incredible physique with just dumbbells I mean honestly, I would say 80 plus percent of the clients I trained I Because in a gym when it's primetime hours. It's hard to get a bench, you know, it's one squat rack It's hard to get a little so a lot of the training was dumbbell most the training I think I taught was dumbbell training you could build an incredible physique without ever ever touching a barbell now We are obviously we talk about the benefits of a barbell and we love barbell training But it doesn't mean that Consistency and diet is is trumps the shit out of the tools that you're using if you have good programming That makes the biggest difference in the world and so what I mean by that is I mean you could get crappy results With just dumbbells too, but it's not because of the dumbbells. Yeah the programming side and I think too I mean definitely powerlifters, you know have a different goal in mind But also they could benefit a lot from dumbbell training and to you know, like fit that in And cycle out of what they're normally doing to get into more like, you know lateral type training and to have that independent load where now You know, your body has to be able to stabilize and react in a different way provides a new stimulus So really like dumbbells should be a part of your routine at some point Even if you're trying to be a goliath in the gym with with barbell. Yeah, I can think of better Honestly, if you only could get the bare minimum for equipment for your house Paradum bells would be honestly the best option I mean you could do a lot with suspension trainers and bands too But dumbbells are so versatile. They're free weight. They adjust to your body. You can build muscle with them. You can condition You can do quite a bit with dumbbells. They work you unilaterally So it's really good for balancing out your body if you want to develop aesthetics Dumbbells are more than sufficient. So you're gonna do great with just dumbbells
