question about squats

[mongoose01]

if i do dumbbell squats, with a sufficient amount of weight, will i get the some testosterone releasing benefits?

 

[Skel]

why use dumbells? I personally dont know much either so just asking. Wouldnt it be easier to put more weight on your shoulders? Just curious

You will use less muscles (and less weight) in dumbell squats than ordinary ones, for example, the traps will not be included at all. I am not sure how much release of testosterone it will be with dbsquats but I promise that barbell squats is better even if they are more scary to do.

Stick with the barbell. If you cant use a barbell, then that'll have to do. Either that or get a huge burgen and fill it up with sandbags and do squats that way.

You still should.

Stick with barbell for squats nonetheless.
