If you’ve spent any time in a gym, you’ve almost certainly noticed it that beefy, barbell-on-rails contraption sitting in the corner, often overlooked in favour of the free weight racks. The smith machine has had a complicated reputation over the years. Some lifters swear by it. Others dismiss it entirely. The truth, though, is far more nuanced than either camp lets on, and understanding what this piece of equipment actually does and how to use it properly can make a meaningful difference in your training. What Exactly Is a Smith Machine? At its core, a smith machine is a piece…

There are leaders who seek the spotlight, and there are leaders who simply get things done building institutions, bridging industries, and quietly reshaping the world around them. Nancy Déziel belongs firmly in that second category. A scientist, executive, municipal politician, and now one of Canada’s most prominent research governance figures, she has spent more than three decades proving that genuine innovation happens at the intersection of science, community, and stubborn determination.
