Smith Machines are large pieces of equipment featuring a barbell fixed to tracks, allowing variations of standard barbell exercises with added stability and a controlled movement path.
These machines are effective tools for learning barbell techniques safely or for focusing on exertion with stabilized support.
Muscle building workouts typically incorporate both compound movements to engage various muscle groups and isolation exercises to target specific areas efficiently.
By utilizing moderate weights and performing higher repetitions, these workouts promote hypertrophy by prioritizing muscle growth and size development.
