What belongs in this group
Use guided resistance for stable presses, pulls and isolation exercises.
Common options
These examples cover distinct setups rather than a ranked list.
- Machine chest press
- Leg press
- Seated leg curl
- Machine row
How to choose
Adjust the machine to the athlete and record the exact equipment where stacks or leverages differ between gyms.
Keep the chosen movement stable long enough to compare performance, unless pain, equipment or programme fit requires a change.
Catalogue quality
Bulk Coach's exercise catalogue contains names, instructions, muscles, equipment, movement patterns and substitutions. Individual exercise URLs remain outside the sitemap until their instructions and added programming guidance receive a recorded founder review.
