Where did the smith machine come from? Do they belong in commercial gyms? What about home gyms? We dive deep into this controversial piece of gym equipment. We also go over out body fat %, Dorian Yates’ sandpaper skin, and the best shirt we’ve ever made (possibly).

In Europe Smith mashines are the most used in Gyms, for any kind of exercises by most people. When I created my home gym, the 45 degrees leg press and a good smith mashine were the first things I bought, Smith mashines are now integrated in racks no extra space, in bodybuilding, smith mashine is a very important tool. Enjoyed your podcast :)

My gym has a regular Smith machine but also one that allows movement front to back. I haven’t used a Smith machine in a very long time but I’m open to trying them in the future for certain exercises (calf raises sound ideal, maybe JM presses, lunges). Like you all said I think it’s better for beginners to start with barbells and dumbbells, just keeping the weight low. It seems like for intermediate to advanced bodybuilders the Smith machine helps out a lot from a stimulus to fatigue ratio. But I’m not certainly not there yet

Getting through this podcast a little late in the week but it’s a nice surprise to hear my name mention by Tommy as one of the people he’s sandwiched between. And yes Tommy there’s a lot worse places you could be at

The Smith Machine is the Mullet of the gym...comes in and out of style, but we all know a sweet one when we see one!

Have you guys tried LMNT drinks? They are salty, but they are flavored. I find them to be really good, I think they are a Coop sponsor.

Also a Dave Tate Table Talk sponsor. He had a bunch of that stuff around when we were there, but I didn't try any.
