how many of you use smith machine

[ZestyT]

how many of you guys use a smith machine for flat bench, incline bench, shoulder press or anything else (shrugs, squats, deadlifts)

i tried flat and incline smith presses and shoulder presses on it this week and i felt a lot more isolation

Im thinking about making it a staple in my workout and possibly taking out regular barbell benching and shoulder press out and just do the smith..thoughts??

[FitnBuf]

I love the smith machine. I do chest, shoulders and quads on this machine. It is great

[Justin198922]

Definately has it benefits, I wouldn't completly take out the two you mentioned, maybe just alternte them.

[Shadow]

I use that motherfucker for almost everything, here and there.

[Ninja Loco]

I balance it and other machines in to my workouts. I did behind the neck shoulder presses with it today as a matter of fact.

I have not indulged in the wonderful exercise of BH the neck presses, after tearing both of my posterior labrums... but if they where to be repaired , i'd still do those mother fuckers.

I use it to squat cause I have a torn acl. Like behind the neck presses on it aswell.

[michigan muscle]

I like it alternating between smith for shoulder press and hammerstrength shoulder press every few weeks...also like to do bent over rows on it from time to time

IF I am training alone, I only do benches and military press on the Smith Machine.

[chucksm00th]

I prefer the smith, I perform squats, military presses and Inclines on it.

[Sledge]

I only use it for shrugs and close grip bench sometimes.

[barbellbarbie]

i use the smith for things that either are dangerous alone or i need heavier than my stability allows..

squats lunges incline bench cgbp

[Marduk The UnREPable]

I use it for almost everything as well . Doing DC and without a training partner it really helps.

[rocco-x]

i use it for chest/shoulders.i don't have a partner and most times when i go to the gym there's really no one there to spot me,correctly at least.it's great for inclines.
