7 Best Gym Machines for Beginners #shorts

[hannak]

People telling to "just use free weights" forgot how it's like to be a beginner. I am a beginner, free weights are SCARY idk what to do with them and I probably will screw up my form. Most of the time I have no clue what am I doing wrong. Deadlift is the only thing that I understand, but my form is likely horrible. Machines are much less intimidating and therefore - much more beginner friendly.

Skip the machines and use free weights and cables guys, also train while standing up unless you’re targeting chest

Start with free weights. Literally start with the bar (it is only 20kg. It will not crush you and you could leave it on your neck if you wanted and be fine [dont don’t do that though, my point is you won’t die or get seriously injured from such light weight unless your form is ludicrous]). It removes the fear factor, is safer in the long run as you develop stabilisers with your lifts, and movements are all very simple (1-2 planes of movement topps [second tends to be slight shifts that naturally will happen] and 1 YouTube video can teach you safe practice). Now don’t do machines until you want to combo them with free weights as well :D

Don’t do machine shoulder press, puts a lot of load on your wrist and isn’t comfortable. Do dumbbell press instead

[ExtravicSyzic]

better machines for beginners:
-lat pulldowns (works lats, traps, and biceps)
-leg curls (hamstrings and calves)
-smith machine (do you wanna die?)
-pull up machine
-save the rest for dumbbells and barbells bozo.
