Hi,

Just wondering which one is best for BP'ing with? I use both, but when I train on my own I prefer the Smith machine. however, I find it easier than a barbell. Is it best to train with the smith or with barbells.

I often find I can BP more witht he smith machine, is that because the movement is guided?

Cheers
