    Squats with DB

    Well I work out in my home with a mediocre set of equipment; basically just some DB and a pull up bar. Usually people do squats with a barbell by holding it on their upper chest or shoulders, and i've seen people do it with one DB holding it to their chest infront of them.

    I only have DBs that are all different weights, Ie 40,45, and 50 lbs.. I don't have 2 of the same weight.

    Is it ok to hold one DB in my right hand that weights a little more than the one in my left hand, and do squats? The weights would be lopsided, so my question is... would that be ok?

    I'm just making sure...because i dont think 5-10 lbs difference would be all that bad.

    thanks.

    you can do goblet squats with the 50 but that is really not enough weight I don't think

    Here are a few moves you can do with just one DB. These 3 put together is pretty much a full body routine.
