What is a Machine Chest Press?
A machine chest press is an exercise performed on a device designed to work the chest muscles. Most gyms have chest press machines. They have a seat to sit on or a bench to lie down on. When you are on the machine, the user presses away from the body with their hands on two handles in front of the chest. The amount of resistance is determined by the number of weight plates that are chosen by the user. • Features • The machine chest press exercise is good for people who are not comfortable lifting free weights.
