Here's a list of our favourites.<\/p>\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"font-size: 24px; font-family: Euclid Medium;\"> The assisted pull up machine: biceps and lats<\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">The pull up is probably one of the most effective upper body exercises. It targets the latissimus dorsi muscle group in the back and the biceps in the arms. But it also engages the deltoids in the shoulders, rhomboids in the back, and the core.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">The trouble is, achieving a pull up is hugely challenging for most people. The assisted pull up machine lets you build up to the whole thing, developing strength in the back and arms.<\/p>\r\n\u00a0\r\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/y00_rMYk1Oc?t=42\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"font-size: 24px; font-family: Euclid Medium;\">The Bicep Curl Machine: Biceps<\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">The bicep curl or preacher curl machine helps you emulate the bicep curl movement, which, you guessed it, works the bicep muscles on the front of the upper arm. It also engages the muscles in your forearm.<\/p>\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https:\/\/www.hussle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/Bicep-curl.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4637\" \/>\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"font-size: 24px; font-family: Euclid Medium;\">The Seated Dip Machine: Triceps<\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">The seated dip mimics the tricep dip that you would use your body weight for. Using the machine helps you get the range of movement right and effectively target the triceps at the back of the upper arm. This exercise also engages the muscles in the chest and shoulders.<\/p>\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nhRexXR59Us\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: Euclid Medium;\">Shoulder Press: Shoulders<\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">You might argue that the shoulders don't really count as part of the arm, but your deltoids are one of the largest muscles in the upper body, and strength here will help you do more in loads of other exercises.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">The primary muscles involved in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hussle.com\/blog\/how-and-why-the-shoulder-press-machine\/\"><b>seated shoulder press<\/b><\/a> are your deltoids at the top of your shoulders, as well as your triceps, and trapezius muscles located in your upper back.<\/p>\r\n\u00a0\r\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MqSPWO-NT08\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\r\n<h4 style=\"font-size: 20px; font-family: Euclid Medium;\">The Cables: Everything<\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">There's one machine left that we want to talk about. It's the big scary looking one with multiple sections, handles, and weights attached to it. The cable machine, pulleys, cable crossover machine, multi-cable machine. Whatever you call it, it's arguably the most versatile piece of equipment on the gym floor.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\">The variety of handle types and locations mean that you can do a huge range of exercises at this station. It's easy to do an entire upper body session without leaving the cables. It might take a little bit more planning of what you're going to do., but once you've got a routine in mind, it can make your workout much more efficient.<\/p>\r\n\u00a0\r\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Sx20twkjHbM\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\n\u00a0\r\nStill committed to the free weights? Or ready to give the gym machines a go?
