Smith Machine Incline Bench Press
What is this machine?
Smith-koneen vinopenkkipunnerrus on kuntosalilaite, joka kuormittaa ensisijaisesti Chest.
Liikkeessä työskentelevät myös Shoulders ja Triceps.
The exercise suits a beginner: the range of motion is guided and you can start light.
On a machine the range of motion is guided, which makes it safe to train alone — but the settings must be adjusted to your own body, or the movement will be felt in the wrong place.
Key facts
Instructions and video are in the app
This page tells you what the machine is. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes and a video of the movement are in the Luio app — the video shows the range of motion that text cannot describe.
Open in the app⚠️ Most common mistake: Setting the incline too high, which turns the lift into an overhead press and removes the chest focus. Letting the elbows flare to 90 degrees, which strains the front shoulders and reduces chest engagement. Lifting the hips off the bench to use leverage, which destabilizes the lift. Bouncing the bar off the chest to use momentum instead of a controlled press.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Chest. The Shoulders, Triceps assist.
