Take the bench press for example, there was a study comparing smith machine bench press vs free weight bench press:

For lower chest, make sure you position yourself on a free weight decline bench press machine and take the barbell above you with a grip that is slightly beyond shoulder width apart.

For example, when comparing constant load (free weight) and constant resistance (pneumatic machine) bench presses, the constant resistance bench presses involve higher peak velocities, because they allow greater acceleration at the start of the movement (Frost et al. 2008).

The bench press can be classified by the weight implement used (barbell, dumbbell, machine), and the variation (grip width, lifting phase, bench angle, stability surface).

They reported that the biceps brachii displayed significantly greater muscle activity when performing the free - weight bench press compared to the smith machine at 60 % but not 80 % of 1RM.

Assessing the effect of weight implement used, Saeterbekken et al. (2011) explored the differences in biceps brachii muscle activity between the free - weight barbell, dumbbell and smith machine bench press.

Biceps brachii muscle activity seems to be higher in the bench press using free - weights compared to machine resistance.

Assessing the effect of implement, Schick et al. (2010) found no difference in pectoralis major muscle activity when performing the free - weight bench press or when performing a Smith machine bench press.

McCaw & Friday (1994) explored the differences in muscle activity between the free - weight bench press and the smith machine variation with 60 % and 80 % of 1RM.

Saeterbakken et al. (2011) also found no difference in pectoralis major muscle activity between the free - weight, smith machine or dumbbell bench press.

Overall, research indicates that the free - weight and machine bench press produce very similar levels of pectoralis major EMG amplitude and therefore either will train the muscle effectively.

Assessing the effect of weight implement used, Saeterbakken et al. (2011) found no difference in triceps brachii muscle activity when performing the free - weight bench press or when performing a smith machine bench press.

Exploring the effect of implement, Schick et al. (2010) found that middle deltoid muscle activity was significantly greater when performing the free - weight bench press compared with the Smith machine variation.

Assessing the effect of load, McCaw & Friday (1994) found a main difference in biceps brachii muscle activity between 60 % and 80 % of 1RM when performing the free - weight and smith machine bench press.

McCaw & Friday (1994) also found that the middle deltoid muscle activity was significantly greater during the free - weight bench press compared with the Smith machine version.

The bench press 1RM performed on the smith machine is not greater than performing the free - weight bench press.

For example, middle (but not anterior) deltoid activation tends to be greater during free weight bench presses compared to Smith machine bench presses (Schick et al. 2010).

In contrast, McCaw et al. (1994) found greater middle deltoid muscle activity during the free weight bench press compared with the machine bench press at 60 % 1 RM but not at 80 %, although in both cases the middle deltoid muscle activity was approximately half that of the anterior deltoid.
