How to perform?
Cable Chest Flyes are an isolation exercise that targets the chest muscles. This exercise is performed by pulling a cable from a high position while keeping the arms straight and the torso stabilized. It's a great exercise for hitting the pecks from a different angle and really maximizing growth.
Steps to perform:
- Set cable pulleys to chest height and attach D-handles.
- Stand between the pulleys, one foot forward for stability.
- Grab handles with a slight bend in your elbows, palms facing forward.
- Engage your core and maintain a slight bend in your knees.
- Exhale, open your arms in a wide arc, squeezing your chest at the end.
- Keep a slight bend in your elbows throughout the movement.
- Inhale as you bring the handles back together in a controlled manner.
- Maintain a stable stance and avoid arching your back.
