Whether you make a beeline for the dumbbells when you get to the gym or you bounce around from machine to machine, there’s one thing we know: Strength training has numerous benefits, leading to stronger bones and muscles, better balance, and maintenance of a healthy weight.
But if you ever wonder where you should be spending your time during a sweat session — with free weights or on weight machines — look no further.
Both free weights and machines are beneficial.
It all comes down to — as with many fitness-related “this or that” questions — your fitness level and goals.
In general, weight machines are a great tool for beginners, as they teach proper form and reduce the risk of injury.
Free weights, on the other hand, allow you to work more muscles and promote functional fitness.
Plus, if home workouts are your jam right now, free weights are more accessible and versatile than machines.
