BENEFITS OF FREE WEIGHTS AREA
GET STRONGER, FASTER.
Free weights allow you to move through your exercises with a greater range of motion. The freedom in range of motion helps you adapt better form because you aren’t limited to the path of the weight machine. Additionally, research has shown free weights, when compared to weight machines, help the muscles get stronger, faster. This is because more muscles are used to stabilize free weight exercises compared to similar machine exercises. Not only are you engaging the targeted muscle group, but your stabilizing muscles are also being put to work as you keep your body balanced.
