I started out using just dumbells & it worked ok. I did eventually get a barbell because a) I found one at a good price & b) I just like doing deadlifts, deadrows & bench press with the barbell. Don't like to switch the weight though so if I'm not feeling up to my usual, I go back to dumbells...works just fine.
