The problem for many people, is getting that free weight motion safely if you have to workout alone. This Smith Machine concept tackles that nicely.I researched for weeks what would be the best free weight (or similar) home gym, at the lowest price possible, and as safely as possible without a spotter, but without sacrificing quality. This Marcy smith system won the toss. There were a few other possible runner-ups (like the Body Solid Series 7 Smith Machine at $2800, or the PowerTec Multisystem Leverage Gym at $1500). Both had their pros (quality) and cons (size/price), but in the end when I compared everything this Marcy gym won hands down. The Linear Bearings used in it dramatically increase the quality factor, and while some reviews said they were not "Thompson" bearings, I find them to be of very good quality and extremely smooth (besides, how "brand name" do you really...

It does almost every exercise you could ever want or need. It also looks great sitting there in my family room. I have included a couple of pictures to give a closer and more detailed view of some of the attachment on the system because the picture that Amazon gives kinda sucks.Well here is my rundown on this gym: Pros are as follows: 1. Great quality/price ratio with it only costing me $969.94 and Free Super Saver shipping. It shipped with CEVA Logistics to get to me. (Just a side note here, be sure to call CEVA and have them lookup your tracking number because Amazon did not supply the correct tracking number and CEVA must contact you to schedule a delivery appointment or else they will not come out to deliver to you.) 2. This machine looks great in your living room, den, patio, or...

Preacher curls feel great, as do the leg developer exercises. Squats on the smith machine can be done to perfection and create an excellent workout with less weight. I have a lot of cons, but I truly enjoy the machine and use at least 3-4 components of it 3-4 times per week. Cons: The bench does not fit all the way under the smith bar when you wish to attempt shoulder presses with the back support at 90 degrees, so shoulder presses must be done with the bench flat, without back support. Positioning the bench has to be done frequently, it can be hard to put the bench exactly where it needs to be for the perfect bench press. The bar is not scored for hand placement like a normal olympic bar. The bar is light, certainly not 45 pounds... Read more |
