Smith Machine Overhead Press Community

Do i add the weight of the bar with the weight i am putting on each sides as the total weight?

↳ yes

This is crazy.

Barbell = weight on one side (total weight including the bar) Smith machine = weight on one side (excluding the bar weight) Dumbbell = weight of one Machine = weight on one side

Is the weight for both plates combined?

↳ 네 스미스머신은 그냥 두판 합쳐진거에요 봉무게 없어요

They told me to do it with 30 kilos, so I'm doing it as instructed, but what is this... Wow;;

It's a Smith machine, but the barbell weight??

Is it better to use a chair with a backrest if my back hurts while doing it?

The time spent going back and forth to look at my phone and get water takes longer than the time spent exercising. If that's the case, I might as well use equipment that people don't usually use. 👊👊

It's been less than 2 months, and you want me to lift 45?

Yall got this!

Is 15kg the total weight including the bar, or does it mean to set it to 15kg separately? I can only do the bar + 5kg, so should I set it to 5kg?

↳ 아니요 순수원판무게만 꽂으라는이야깁니다

So humbling wow, everyone in this gym just watched me gradually lower the plate weights and now I’m basically just lifting the barbell 💀

↳ not humbling at all. Remember there's quite a few people who aren't at the gym putting in the effort you are. Keep it up, and don't focus on anything other then the gains you making.

Beginners who do not know how to use their shoulder muscles should reduce the range of motion to find the feeling of the muscles. 1. Practice 15 reps up to eye level (minimize triceps involvement). 2. Practice 15 reps lowering from above to in front of the eyes while in a relaxed state (engage up to right next to the collarbone). 3. Once the first two are well done, exercise with full range of motion. 💣💣🏋️‍♂️

↳ 바벨 높이 = 쇄골 위치 손 = 어깨 넓이보다 약간 넓게. 바벨을 내렸을 때, 손목과 팔꿈치가 11자 . 팔꿈치는 앞으로 당기고 측면 봤을때 수직 되게 윗가슴 = 살린 상태. 허리 = 허리를 집어넣는게아니고 윗가슴을 살려서 자연스럽게 떨어지는것. 턱 = 살짝 당겨. 복압 잡고 푸쉬! 위로 쭉 밀어준다. 팔꿈치를 펴는 힘이 아님. 바가 이마를 넘어가면 상체를 살짝 넣어주며 수축. (정수리로 바를 민다고 생각) 내릴때도 살짝 받아준다는 느낌으로. **최대 무게는 너무 욕심내지말고 자기몸무게로 셋팅했을때 자세 괜찮게 1개 할 수 있는 정도가 베스트🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️

One of the exercises where I just can't seem to lift the weight ㅠ

Why is this so hard?! I couldn’t do the recommended weight

↳ my thinking is it’s a vertical lift with top of shoulder doing all the work

It's hard.

No, this is heavy even just with the stick...???

↳ 헐 감사합니다!

Huff huff 🏋️‍♂️

It's really hard.

It's hard.
