The first time in the gym, many beginners get confused and cannot decide which exercise machines to choose.
It should be noted that without a warm-up and appropriate preparation, it is better not to take on massive weights, so as not to get injured.
The main dilemma is between stationary machines and free weights.
Let's think together what we can choose.
What exercise machines and equipment to choose for the gym
Use free weights if you intend to compete in powerlifting competitions or improve your performance in martial arts.
These weights are suitable for those who have little time for training - you will load your muscles faster.
It is easier to exercise on exercise machines, since all the weights are attached to mechanisms – they are easy to use.
Also, with the help of exercise machines you can isolate muscles more easily. Working on exercise machines is less likely to result in injuries.
