Keep in mind, the Five stars are based on my needs for this item kzbin.infoUgkxUHHotQRjIQnfuxEeVotlkHVYWH0DXZoS When I first bought the bike I was going to return it immediately. After trying it out for several days/weeks I came to realize it is actually perfect for WHY I bought it.This is not a workout, the resistance is, eh, it makes a bit of noise, not loud, and it isn’t very stable even with the mat. The mat certainly keeps the bike from sliding but nothing keeps the mat from sliding (if that makes any sense, lol). Mine is place on my hard wood floor. Maybe it would be better with a rug underneath??I sit for long hours for work and wanted something to keep my legs moving. This bike does exactly that! For the price it is amazing, it is compact, easy to use, light weight, keeps track of time, calories etc (not sure how accurate it is) but good little product. I am happy with it.

[@NiNjaTurtLe697]

Thanks for the help man, we use cybex at our gym, and I always watch how others do it to make sure I get the full workout... your vids help a lot.

[@VivecAlmsivi]

Free weights and machines are a powerful combination. Use both! A lot of exercises are hard to do without machine assistance if you're beginning (e.g. barbell chest press, pull ups), but there are machines available to simulate the movement so you can grow that strength. Ultimately free weights are always better but can cause injury with bad form. On a day which I focus on chest (like I did today) I did flat, incline dumb bell presses and this machine. Worked great!

[@cas.t783]

Looked at every video I could and nothing helped until I found this one. Turns out my problem was my wrist position. Thank you so much 🙏

Damn, it’s December 2022 now and I am looking at this comment from seven months ago and I’m just looking into videos on how I should use my machine because I stopped using it when I was working I definitely would’ve been bigger by now if I consistently used it every day from when I made the original comment.

Scott, Thank you so much for giving to people all these great tips in how to improve workouts. I'm a big follower of your videos and I've implemented my routine with yours, getting positive results. Thanks for sharing your knowledge in fitness and body building.

[@duncanng3]

I've encountered a piece of equipment in the gym, looks something like this but it is in the lying down position (for training chest). It can also be adjusted to the position shown in the video. What are the difference between sitting position and lying down position? Both seems the same to me, to train the chest.

[@vadc12]

Yes, you can. This machine will work your whole chest(upper, middle, low). Just focus and try to raise the weight quite frequently(be careful not to injure your muscles though). Soon you will see that your whole chest will grow.

[@xxprogamer2578]

You should focus on reps over weight though

[@ver.m1llion]

@@xxprogamer2578 You have to gradually increase the weight for the muscle to grow, also known as progressive overload. You could either increase the weight or increase the number of repetitions. It's totally up to your preference.

hey mate i had a question please helpl me out so the gym that i go to they dont have this machine they have it with weights and the seat doesnt go front and back so i can only sdjust it up and down so it does put too much pressure on my shoulder so what shall i do i am unable to do full 3 sets of 10 even

[@dickiewongtk]

I should adjust the bar angle so that when my elbows return to 90 degree, the weight never go all the way down, right?

[@jeffbarker1635]

Anyone know if you need to use a specific shoulder / back form when on these machines? Pinched shoulders and arch in back similar to free weights?

[@rhysmendozavilla2378]

How do you translate -weight-wise- barbell bench press to this. I know weight isn't just one-to-one when migrating one to other.

[@wilsonganks]

Does it work? I used to bench press but once I switch it to these due to some pain on my ribs, I noticed I can lift way heavier on a chest press as though it is easier to do

[@Maher-]

What's the difference between the machine and the dumbbells for chest press?

[@xeer0w]

Hi Scott, while doing the Chest Press, do you actually let the weights touch each other between each push, or do you make sure that the weights never touch each other until you finish your entire routine with chest press ? Thanks

[@jaleesajanae]

[@Mastifffriend]

So if you want to overwork the chest and underwork the delts and biceps don't go down to a full 90 degres and do lots of reps?

[@MrMads2610]

In my gym they have start help levers to get it to the starting position which is pretty damn nice to have

[@XxowendanxX]

You can also use those for forced reps

[@Petahx3]

You should do more "variate ____(insert exercise)__" videos like the pull up one. Especially with free weights! I HATE machines because in a packed gym I'd never get my workout done using just machines.

[@EddyMakes]

1:30 The workout starts (superset with the pec deck 3x12/15)

[@PlancksTime]

Hey Scott, how long did it take you to reach this stage of fitness/conditioning? How much in terms of the regularity of training and types of training. You dont look particularly hypertrophied but you seem strong. Why do you think that is?

[@SoundblasterDevision]

always make sure to arch or else ur putting the stress off the chest and into ur shoulders

[@jonolow]

what's the difference between this and the incline chest press they both look really similar

[@vadc12]

Τhis machine will isolate your chest muscles. With bench press you will also train your deltoids(shoulders), your triceps and even your biceps which are the stabilizers. The disadvantage of bench is that you have to do it with perfect technique in order to have results, while the machine "drives" you. If you have little experience prefer to use the machine. If you know exactly how to do the bench press, prefer it. I hope I helped.

[@vinayviswanathan6054]

Excellent advice! Thanks a whole lot.

[@Zetsuke4]

Good

[@Rythm123]

I like the "wrist" factor you put in there lol

[@michaelminervini1908]

Is there a big difference between using the press maching and doing a bench press?

[@riverkingguppy9223]

So on a chest press, If I am able to press the 100 weight, what is the equivalent weight to benching? I am asking because a friend of mine wants to know how much I can bench but I don't have one :)

[@STLMiracle]

Yea i learned a lil bit

[@rickjonathan3088]

I did this exercise and felt on my front shoulder....I tried adjusting my elbows and my shoulder blade back....and still the same result unless I lower the weight,,there were no pain and my chest didn't felt anything 😢...any tips on this?

[@dramaqueen4337]

They don’t have this machine at my gym and I need to do this exercise so what can I do?

[@Nadi.Khanum]

Hi Scott! Keeping the leg at 90 degree is it important?

[@NiNjaTurtLe697]

@MikeEves1 I agree with you, but you are less likely to get injured on the machines than with free weights.

[@shaunjmurro]

How many exercises do u do on each muscles? is it best keeping it low around 4 ? and how many sets?

[@ditz3nfitness]

We have this one and I can't feel my chest but only my arms. Thoughts?

[@Superbestable]

@skingftl If you have issues with your wrists, you might wanna listen to your doctor, who is after all a trained medical professional and unlike us he has actually examined you. It seems a bit unlikely, however, that a chest press would contribute much to CPS (as opposed to, say, typing all day with a crappy keyboard for years, which is why it usually happens).

[@cam553]

Can do the full weight of these machines at my gym x 5 and still not get much chest activation.

[@Jousef9]

Why do I have back pain after doing this, I know I did it wrong but what is the mistake

[@tangcheukyan]

I’m 170cm tall , what height should I choose ? I usually set it on 1 .

[@Wassimmmm]

I always get pain in my arms when I do the chest press what am I doing wrong?

[@LNAdrien]

Hey man. Am I supposed to have my back completely flat against the seat or slightly arched while pressing? Because, arching it and then going back against the seat allow to press more weight.

[@Zetsuke4]

Nice
