DB is supposed to be easier on the shoulders, but i can have problems getting the weight up without a spotter.

Not true. BB Bench press is much harder on your wrist.Originally Posted by Mike Zero

I would think its BB because your using more total weight vs pushing up seperate weight on each side. It would seem like a lot more downward pressure since you holding more total weight. Make sence?Originally Posted by Goofxta
