Free Weights vs. Machines
In this episode of the Healthy Living Scottsdale podcast, Coach Adam sits down with Coach Jolie and Coach Brande to break down the pros and cons of free weights vs strength training machines. The team explains why Legacy prioritizes dumbbells, kettlebells, and barbells over traditional gym machines, highlighting the benefits of improved stability, core engagement, coordination, and real-world functional strength. They discuss how free weight training better supports longevity, balance, and confidence both inside and outside the gym, especially as we age. While machines can have a place in early rehabilitation or for absolute beginners, the conversation makes it clear why functional strength training builds a stronger, more capable body for everyday life.
