I find it queer that commercial gyms prefer smith machine over squat racks and power racks because of "safety" yet I see way more disasters at the smith machine than anywhere else.
Poor guy though. Average people need to stop using belts unironically, they always pass out.
also safeties, I don't know why smith users never use the safeties.
>squat
>becomes paraplegic for life
thats why i dont squat nor do legs
fuck that shit
>>76378644False sense of security since you can simply twist the bar to rack it but people don't realize there's panic and reaction time to account for when you fail
>>76378712You supposed to say who needs heavy lifting though
>>76378645Just dont go mega heavy and dont use Smith machines. I do reps of 20 with medium weight. Even when I'm on the last rep the weight isnt something outrageous on my joints.
y u guys dramatizing tho, is it because he bounced back tk to da bar chop suing his back?
>>76381515his feet are screwed on backwards bro. he snapped his shins in half.
>>76378625 (OP)Don't these shit machines have adjustable safeties
>>76381527fuck man I didn't even catch that.
