I also tore my right rotator cuff a few years ago so my shoulders aren't in premium condition. I used to do a lot of lunges, single leg squats and barbell squats on smith machine but my knees aren't up to it. Now everything is machines. I do work legs twice a week. That looks like a heck of a workout. Planet Fitness does not have barbells except in with set weights up to 60 lbs. ( I think that is the limit) What gym do you workout in? Otherwise you would have to use a smith machine. This is what i found for overhead squats. My neighborhood has 4 really nicely equipped rec centers - I go to one 200 yards from my house. My trainer works there too and the price is pretty reasonable to have her work with me. We got all the iron in here I could ever want. Its funny you mentioned Smith Press. I have not used one before. She gave me some workouts to do when she isnt around and that included squats on the rack. I couldnt get near either of the squat racks we have but the Smith has open and I used it. I think I like that better - at least at this stage. I think she's legit going to try and kill me tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
