+ 1 Barbell Rows (Smith Machine)

Picked this up for cheap, definitely nice to not worry so much about balance so you can put up some heavier weights

The Smith gets a lot of hate sometimes, but I love for some movements. Great for reducing injury & it allows to pull again the path of the bar, and allows you to put up more weight for some things that may injurious to joints & such. Nice grab man

Smith machine is all I have to use right now. Hate it for bent rows. You like it better though? I like to pull a barbell right along my legs when I'm rowing and the Smith machine I have to step out a little from the bar to get the squeeze. Prolly just me though! Congrats on the new piece

I have the same situation, I take a step back from the bar and that feels more comfortable than being directly over top of it

Yeah. Love the Smith for working traps though. My traps have blown up since started working with the Smith machine. It shines In some work big.

I especially like how you can put a backwards force on it. Makes me feel my lats better.
