Cable Fly (Decline)
How to do it
- Set both cable pulleys to the top position and place a decline bench centered between them, then lie back with your head lower than your hips.
- Grasp a handle in each hand and start with arms extended out to your sides at shoulder level, elbows slightly bent.
- Brace your core to keep your torso still, then draw both handles down and together in an arcing path toward your hips.
- Squeeze at the bottom of the movement across the lower chest before slowly reversing back to the starting position.
- Move at a controlled tempo, exhaling as you bring the handles together and inhaling as you open back out.
- Keep the arc path consistent rather than turning the movement into a press by bending the elbows more as you fatigue.
