Forgive me if this has been asked recently....
If one does not own a barbell set (sniff...sniff), how does the same/similar exercise with dumbells compare weight-wise? Is there a general rule? For example, if I determined my 1RM for standing dumbell curls, would I use the same weight (times 2) for barbell curls? Or is there a need to add or subtract. I realize that the hand position are different for each method.
