Do most people use the smith for this?

Dont have any other kind of rack in the gym for it!

or should I just use dumbbells?

TH&S · 28-01-2008, 03:02 PM

Dbs.

Or switch gyms...

DB's over Smith, but for me a 50 degree angle with a BB is my favorite.

Sh*t.

I knew it.

DB's only go up to 45.

Ollie B · 28-01-2008, 03:17 PM

keep on alternating DB,BB and machines.

Spartan301 · 28-01-2008, 03:44 PM

You could try using 2 tricep extension bars as Dbs...

Or use the 2x olly bars - bet that would would stability muscles you didn't even know existed.....
