It’s a debate that’s been taking place for several years.

When lifting, which is the better option?

On this “NASM-CPT Podcast,” host, and NASM Master Instructor, Rick Richey, puts some muscle into the argument by digging into the researched studies.

He details how free weights improves stability, but machine weights often allow to lift heavier, which is more beneficial in sports performance, as well as why often times the best decision is simply based on preferences and goals.
