do machines can build up muscles in legs and calves or its better with weights like the upper body?

This is a response from Menance in another thread which should answer your question.



Freeweights should be the bulk of your program

I see a few reason to use machines

#1 rehabilitation
#2 working around injuries
#3 conserving energy
#4 working on a specific muscular imbalance
