Single Machine Workout: Upper Body

As promised, we’re back this week with the upper body version of our single-machine workout, using the Smith Machine.

How frustrating is it when you hit the gym during peak hours and struggle to find dumbbells, machines, a bench, etc as you move through your workout? Or maybe you only have access to an apartment or condo gym with limited equipment options?

Well, this workout requires only ONE piece of gym equipment, the smith machine, which is available in every large gym setting and most small apartment & condo gyms. 

This week we are featuring an upper body workout, great for lifters of all levels – newbies to OGs, and it’s all done on the smith machine. 

Smith Machine Floor Press – 3 sets x 12 reps (rest 60-90sec between sets)

Smith Machine Bent Over Row – 3 sets x 12 reps (rest 60-90sec between sets)

Smith Machine Incline Push Ups – 3 sets x 12 reps (rest 60-90sec between sets)
