Are there any negatives to using smith machine over normal bench press and squat rack?
>>
Nope, keep on using it while I'm stuck with this stupid power rack.

the only two goddamn things the smith machine is good for

1. reverse shrugs
2. failure sets for hypertrophy

Fit is gonna hate on smith machines yet almost every pro bodybuilder uses one.

What about standing calf raises? I've seen that one mentioned too.
>>
Might as well use a chest press machine.

/fit/ are not pro body builders are they though you absolute cretin.

I use it for standing calf raises. Anything else is almost impossible. It is really easy to lose your balance trying to free-bar calf raises, even if you have incredible balance.
