The Smith Machine is a versatile piece of equipment with a barbell fixed to guided tracks, providing a stable path for weightlifting exercises.
Chest exercises predominantly target the pectoral muscles through horizontal presses and shoulder adduction, enhancing strength and muscle structure.
The back muscles, located across the upper posterior torso, are engaged through pulling motions such as rows and pull-ups to develop functional power.
Combining chest and back muscle workouts maximizes efficiency by incorporating pushing and pulling movements, ensuring balanced development on both sides of the torso.
