People with stubby arms and short torsos were having a hard time using the machine with normal sized dimensions. All about expanding their base.

Pretty much. Close grip bench presses for sets and reps with 335 and lose form skull crushers 3x8-12 reps 165. Made my bench press explode.

The same exact machine was at my gym for years.  You could use one arm at a time.  For some reason, I never got much out of it.  They recently trashed the thing.

A gym that I work out at occasionally has an old Nautilus pullover machine similar to the one in the photo.  It's actually a great machine, my back really feels it.

If I could do only one Tricep machine exercise, it would be rope push downs, preferably with Jamie Eason between me and the rope.

    I'm so demotivated to train i do the most basic of basics for a certain muscle group.
Just today i did arms, 5-6 sets of bicep curls and 5-6 sets of triceps extensions in between, so i get away from the gym faster.
    I didn't even bother to change the bar and it's weights, i just change rep range accordingly.
