Why are some smith machines angled and some vertical to the floor at 90 degrees

[tebby]

thanks HK.....I know it is associated with vag*na lifting but I am a loner with a home gym.
I love mine but need to upgrade. Is there an "equipment forum" for those that have bought and sold stuff over the years to give advise. I guess a smith maching is a smith machine (mine is not bolted to the floor so squats are limited) but then again I have bird leg asitis which I cannot solve over the years

Never heard of this "Vagina lifting". Is it something new? Any links?

Saturday, Lunk, is Shabbos, the Jewish day of rest. That means that I don't work, I don't drive a car, I don't fvcking ride in a car, I don't handle money, I don't turn on the oven, and I sure as shit don't fvcking roll!

Shomer Shabbos!!!

Classic......
It never gets old even after 100 viewings. The cremation urn at the end is still one of the funniest scenes in the history of entertainment

Smith machine question if u don't mind...

When I do squats, I back into the bar from the side that holds the bar and has those catcher thingys. Should I be twirled around 180 degrees??? Does it matter?

Depends on the $ you want to spend. I bought a used one with some weights for $350 but it's not "heavy duty". Some easily sell for over 5K. If Gixx ever comes back on he has a wealth of info on some very nice ones. He used to sell equipment.

You should stand in front of the machine with your back to the bar...then back under the bar. Does that make sense?

No it doesn't matter.
