How heavy is this Olympic bar on Smith's machine?
We are using a 2.2m Olympic bar, which weighs 20kg.
 
Why does the gym fitness smith machine feel lighter?
 
Compared to free weight, the Smith machine feels lighter due to its design and the way it supports weight during movement. The Smith apparatus is a fixed barbell rack that allows you to perform exercises such as squats, bench presses, and shoulder presses using a rod guided by two parallel steel bars. Here are a few reasons why Smith machines may feel lighter:
 
Unlike the free weight of barbells or dumbbells that can move in any direction, the rods of Smith machines move along a fixed path determined by the rods. This means that compared to using free barbells for traditional squats or push ups, weightlifting requires less "unnecessary" weight. During weightlifting, the free barbell may sometimes tilt, causing you to lift more weight than necessary due to the movement of the barbell. The Smith machine eliminated this problem, making weightlifting easier.
 
2. Reduce the risk of injury: Guided exercise reduces the risk of injury associated with free weight. For example, during a squat, if you lose balance with a free barbell, you may drop it onto yourself, which is much less likely with the smith strength machine due to its stable setup.
 
3. Consistent resistance: Smith machines ensure that the resistance you feel is consistent throughout the entire range of motion. In free weight training, resistance varies with different angles of movement (such as lifting the barbell above your head or lowering it). The smith gym equipment maintains a constant resistance, which can make the motion feel lighter and more predictable.
 
4. Support frame: The frame of the Smith machine provides additional support, especially during activities such as squats and hard lifts. This additional support reduces some of the burden on your body and makes exercise feel easier.
 
5. Easy to correct posture: The stability of the Smith machine makes it easier to maintain the correct posture.
 
In summary, the smith gym used fitness equipment feels lighter due to its directional movement, reduced risk of injury, stable resistance, support frame, and ease of use, all of which contribute to providing a more efficient and safe exercise experience.
