Replying to Avatar Jameson Lopp

One reason to stick to free weights over exercise machines: traveling.

No matter where you go, a pound is a pound and a kilogram is a kilogram - for free weights.

But machines can vary by brand and even by age / wear. It's frustrating when you're trying to follow a precise schedule of graduated weights.

But the bar is always unknown though 😆

The real problem with machines is you're not using your stabilising muscles which limits how much strength transfers to real world.

There's nothing like maxing the weights on machines in a hotel gym to make you feel strong though.
