smith machine ?'s
my gym just recently got rid of the free weights for bench pressing and replaced it with a smith machine.....
now i was told that will the counter balancing the bar only actually weights 8-12 pounds....and that feels about right....
my questions are......i cant lift as much now....the smith machine makes benching harder for me...
is it because i cheated b4 using bad form?
any ideas...with a regular bar i was going up about 5 lbs on my bench every 2 weeks or chest sessions....
with this smith machine i havent moved up in about 2-3 months
and it seems alot harder to put up the same amount of weight as on a free weight set up....
