Smith Machines FAQ
There are a few ways you can best use your Smith Machine. The main utility of these machine is when performing barbell exercises such deadlifts, squats and bench presses. Squats are performed by resting the bar on your shoulders from the back, and slowly lowering your hips down while gripping the bar on either side, then straightening your knees back and repeating. This exercise will work your abdominals, glutes and quads. Another great exercise to perform with a Smith Machine is a bench press, where you’ll lie flat on an exercise bench, and lifting the bar above your head.
Smith Machines have guide rails that run along the frame, and are attached to the barbell. This allows for a smooth motion as you move the bar vertically. On top of this, there are catchment hooks along the frame that will lock the bar in place when released. This is helpful for when you don’t have access to a spotter in your lifts, and for additional safety if anything goes wrong.
There are many exercises you can perform with a Smith Machine, such as Squats and Bench Presses. Here are a few more exercises you can try to get the most out of your machine.
Deadlifts: Position the bar just above your feet in front of you, then gripping the bar with both hands, hinging from the waist. Keeping your back straight, lift the bar, returning to standing position. Lower back down again and repeat.
Barbell rows: With the bar at about knee height in front of you, bend down from the waist with a straight back. Grip the bar with both hands, then bend your elbows towards you.
