Should we choose fitness machines?
Choosing between machines or free weights is a topic of great debate, especially in the world of health and fitness. In this regard, the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) sets out a number of comparisons:
Machines are not always designed to fit the proportions of all individuals. Customers who are obese have special physical considerations or disabilities, and being shorter, taller or wider than the norm may not fit comfortably on the machines and use them with ease.
Machine exercises may be more useful than free weight exercises in some special populations. One reason for this is that machines are often perceived as less "intimidating" to a beginner.

When we talk about strength training, there are several terms that can sometimes be confusing:
