Inflight Fitness Counter-Balanced Smith Machine

Smith Machine | Safe and Controlled Weightlifting Alternative to Free Weights

The Smith Machine is the perfect alternative to free weights, offering a safer and more controlled environment for both novice and experienced lifters. Designed with a fixed barbell that moves along steel rails, the Smith Machine restricts movement to a vertical or near-vertical plane, ensuring stability and precision during your workouts. Ideal for a variety of upper body exercises such as presses, rows, and lifts, as well as lower body exercises like squats and donkey kicks, this versatile machine replicates nearly every free weight exercise while adding enhanced safety features.

The Smith Machine is ideal for those looking for a safer way to perform weightlifting exercises. For beginners, the machine provides a controlled means of targeting the same muscles as free weights without the risk of improper form or balance issues. For all users, the counterbalanced bar and guide rails prevent dangerous swaying and allow users to focus on engaging the intended muscles. This is especially beneficial when lifting heavy weights, as it helps prevent stronger muscles from overpowering weaker stabilizer muscles.

Additionally, the Smith Machine includes multiple catch points along the front and rear of the unit, allowing the bar to rest securely when needed. Simply roll your wrists forward or back to release or re-rack the bar. Adjustable safety stops are also featured, letting users set the lowest travel height for the bar, ensuring safety during every rep. These safety features make it so that a traditional spotter is typically not needed, offering peace of mind during intense workouts.
