Digging up old threads eh Troy?
I go freeweights mostly, no pulley function help on the exercises. I do some cable exercises at the end of my workouts..For example, some light tricep pull downs. |

Free weights are better, but machines have their place for some things.

Free weights work your stability muscles, whereas machine do not, or do so to a much lesser extent.
