Machine Presses : To work the pectoral muscles. One of the
advantages of doing presses on a machine is that the machine stays in a
certain groove, precluding any need for spending energy on balance and
coordination. This is especially beneficial for people rehabbing a
shoulder injury. Also, using a machine, your workout partner can push
down on the mechanism to allow you to do heavy forced negative
repetitions. However, being forced to stay in that groove somewhat
limits the stimulation to the muscles.
Flat Bench
Machine Presses : The pectoral station of most machines is constructed
to give you a flat bench press movement.
Incline
Machine Presses : Using an incline bench and a smith machine, you can
mimic certain angles of the free-weight movement in a very strict
manner.
Decline
Machine Presses : A decline bench on a smith machine effectively allows
you to press at a decline angle.
