    because it can't technically do tricep pushdowns.
    what we have is something like this. and there's a seated row attached to it too.

    so no short bar or a rope attachment? that is sad :(, well true with this bar it will not be balanced when you do push downs :baffled:

    your body isn't supposed to go up and down verticallty through a straight line like in the smith machine. If you try to do squats in it then you'll hurt your body and there will be muscular imbalance.
    The only way to squat in a smith machine without hurting your self is to do hack squats. Which literally means keep your legs in front of you body (which is not stable. you can't stand like that) and squatting. Check out hack squats in you tube. This is not a compound movement. It won't affect your hamstrings (mainly) and other body parts. Only your Quads.
    And the machine is always controlling your movement. So there is not balancing of weights done by you.





    Thanks man. :cool:

    even if there was a rope attachment I don't think he'll allow it :)
    the weight's are literally toughing the top when drawn to some length

    it's not only made for squats, you can do several exercises using a smith machine but the problem with it is the plane of motion is fixed which is very bad for our body structure :baffled:

    yeah i do the front shoulder press with it. these little little things are very important but the instructors never tell you or simply they dont know.

    some instructors don't tell because they don't know probably becuase lack of education :nerd: , some don't care :oo:, some of them wait for you to go to them and ask because they want to show that they know everything or they are the masters :P
