because the free weight sections are always occupied by the uni rugby team and i am allowed to take dumbbells so i took 20kg dumbbells and did those and after major DOMS

i don't understand your Q?

bulgarian split squat with barbell is definitely harder than DB variation, both are effective tho.

OK let me rephrase my question.

my regular workout is Olympic Squats (parallel + a bit more), calf raises and RDL's.
one session, the squat rack is booked so have to use dumbbells and any weight, what exercise would you do as the next best alternative to barbell squats, Calf raises and RDL using dumbbells only any weight?
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up
-------------------------------------------------------------
Measuring reminder:
5 toe to heel steps = 148cm
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arm also aids the legs in driving it down with power - seifullaah73

one session, the squat rack is booked so have to use dumbbells and any weight, what exercise would you do as the next best alternative to barbell squats, Calf raises and RDL using dumbbells only any weight?

walking lunges/bulgarian split squats for sure.. 45 degree hypers or natural glute ham raises if possible.

one really nice exercise with db's is a single leg squat while standing on an 18-24" box.. if you stand on the box with left leg, you hold dumbell in right leg, and you squat right down.. hits the glutes really good.

single leg RDL with DB in opposite hand (standing on the ground, not a box) is also really effective.

but ya, getting your db lunge/bss weights up can definitely get you gains.

peace man

like a 2-1-1 or 2-1-2.. controlled.

im limiting myself bigtime for a while, that lat-dorsi injury was disappointing.

bw = 190

session:

S1: ssbar deep squat: 205 @ 1 x 5
S1: single arm db bench: 80 lb @ 8
S1: single arm db row: 80 lb @ 8

2: single arm db curl: 80 lb @ 8



a little weak today, mostly due to diet.. i MIGHT be transitioning into a mostly veggies diet.. though my shift changes at work on the 9th, ill be craving this greek restaurant daily.. so that might not last long.. but, that greek restaurant is mostly veggies + skirt steak/chicken so i'll be eating pretty healthy.

last 2 days i've only eaten huge salads
