Strength exercise
Cable Fly (Standing)
How to do it
- Set both cable pulleys to chest height and stand centered between them in a staggered stance for balance.
- Grasp a handle in each hand and step forward slightly until you feel tension, starting with arms extended out to your sides at chest level.
- Brace your core and keep a slight forward lean, then sweep both handles together in an arc in front of your chest.
- Squeeze the chest at the point where your hands meet before slowly letting your arms open back out under control.
- Keep the tempo steady throughout, exhaling as your hands come together and inhaling as you return.
- Keep your elbows at a fixed soft bend rather than straightening or bending them further mid rep.
