Smith machine is better than nothing. Leg press won't exactly substitute a squat in a squat rack, over a smith-machine squat. So just stick with smith machine for your squating routine.
Because of upper body injury I was only able to maintain the lower body on the program at a consistent interval. Now this is probably noob gains because I don't workout my lower body as much as I...
Finally able to start doing arm exercises again. I should be on Week 3 Day 4 but On Week 1 Day 5 I used too much weight during the Barbell Curls and was having left elbow pains for a good 2 weeks...
