Just curious if anyone knows or has an idea of the difference between both. I'm sure there has to be some kind of scientific explanation.
For instance, I can bang out 4 sets of 10 with the cable rack of 200lbs doing curls with the cable curl bar, but I can't do 4 sets of 10 with 60 lb dumbells single armed.
I'm assuming other muscles are getting involved in the cable bar compared to dumbbells, but do you think you use that much from the other muscles to compensate all that weight or is there some kind of difference with it being a cable through pulleys?
Hope that makes sense.
