Our Experience With Barbells 

 

Although barbells and dumbbells will always be the mainstay of free-weight training (these exercise's may also be performed using dumbbells) there are  several limiting factors associated with this method.

 

The bracing of the forearms reduces muscle engagement of the brachioradialis.

40% to 50%.

 

The barbell supination grip (palms facing up) places a great amount of stress on the wrist flexors and wrist ligaments which over time can lead to injury.

 

Muscle engagement of the extensor muscles is not applicable.
