the handles weren’t coming back close to your chest (range of motion) I also suggest you update the vid to tell viewers to keep shoulders pinned, scapula back and low and to “bend the bar” i e use mind muscle to invision arms hugging inward without even moving them
Great video my recent upload is all about using the chest press machine with good form! Check it out https://youtu.be/PrRIIj2nXac
I was wondering if we were using the chest presss machine correctly,having only joined the gym a month ago. After watching the video, I can see what we have been doing wrong. Not breathing correctly: Not holding each rep for 2 secs:Locking our arms out, which could cause injury. After having a lightning induction course, we found it hard to remember how to use all the equipment safely. Observing other people is a help. But how do you know they are using the equipment correctly?
As we progess, we will view more instructional videos on exercising the various muscle groups to lose weight and get fit. After only four weeks, we can feel the benefits of going to the gym for an hour twice per week.
Many thanks for the excellent demonstartion

Where can I buy this machine? I want one for the house, I dont have time to go to the gym twice a week. I work 6 days a week and I would like touse this machine 2 times a week. If anyone knows where I can get one please lmk. Thank you very much.
stopped watching after he instructed “return it back down”, when lowering the weight. Whether your goal is strength or hypertrophy, the eccentric part of the movement is MOST important. However, tempo varies depending on goal..
The weight stack is too small. I can do sets of 5 reps at full weight on these, 145kg I believe. If I can do that weight and only weigh 84kg, imagine what somebody strong could do, far more than this machines weight stack.
u even certified to be showing how to perform exercises? lol..
Better find all gym fitness equipments on magnusfitnessworld. I made so )
if you dudes need to get ripped a lot quicker without spending a single extra minute in the gym, then you must look at this video tutorial SIXPP.COMLife is like a taxi. The meter just keeps a-ticking whether you are getting somewhere or just standing still.
if you start too far back does that not put unnecessary strain on the shoulders
Hey thanks for some great advice on how to use these machines properly, but what produce the best results,machines or free weights? Thanks
I right down what i can lift for 10-12 reps then after a week i add 5% then start back at 8-12 reps muscle takes time to grow
You want to aim to be reaching muscular fatigue on about the 15th repetition. I would start at around 30kg and really focus on technique prior to additional weight; then work on a sliding scale, increasing the weight in line with the recommendation for reps.
Yes it can do potentially, it’s important not to lift too heavily that causes poor technique. Rotator cuff strengthening exercises will also help.
Thanks for this. I needed a point of reference for the seat adjustment.
If u didn’t see it rewind and look at his face at 1:04 and play from there
can u suggest best weight to lift for newbie..my weight 82kg height 1.72m..TQ
