Smith Squat to Bench
Expert Advice
Use the bench as a guide for depth, but don't fully sit down; lightly touch it with your glutes to ensure consistent squat depth.
How-to-do Steps
- Position a bench behind you and set the Smith machine bar to shoulder height.
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart in front of the bar.
- Unrack the bar and lower your body toward the bench.
- Once your glutes touch the bench, push through your heels to return to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
