The Smith Machine HP Full would have to be the most divisive piece of gym equipment – the machine mirrors movement when doing similar exercises with free weights. People either love them or hate them! In essence, this weight machine is similar to a power rack or squat rack, because it has uprights and you are lifting weights on a bar.

The big difference is that the lifting bar is fixed, and it runs up and down on guide rails. This Smith machine offers protection and provides a safe alternative to trainers who don’t have a spotter.
