Lee Priest’s gym montage shifts from machine work to the bar

SportLocation Fitness Desk · 6 Oct 2026

A sequence of upper-body machine and dumbbell exercises gives way to a barbell movement in this gym montage attributed to Lee Priest.

Lee Priest’s gym montage is built around changing demands. It moves through upper-body work on machines and with dumbbells, then arrives at a barbell movement. The equipment changes, and so does the setup required for each exercise.

One clear moment comes at the machine: Priest is seated with his arms extended out at shoulder height. Later, the montage shows a bar held across the shoulders. That contrast gives the sequence its shape, from controlled machine work to a loaded barbell exercise.

Rather than dwell on one lift, the montage keeps moving. Its interest lies in that variety: different pieces of gym equipment, different positions, one training sequence.
