hey anons, is it possible to make gains by NOT working with dumbells? i'm asking this because there are alot of machines for each party of the body in my gym, and im wondering if i could use them instead. theyre much more comfortable to work on

You need compound exercises that work multiple muscle groups, machines are supposed to be used for isolation.

Weight machines

You won't be hitting your stabilizer muscles at all

Yes it's possible to make gains, but you wont be able to transition and lift the same amount with free weights because >>39362057

I'm thinking of chest exercises.
For arms machines are good too but why not just do everything

Isolation exercises are really only good for targeting weak points. You bench, but have terrible triceps? Get on that tricep machine. Is a tricep machine a thing? Probably, but I have never seen one.
