High Cable Fly
How to do it
- Set both cable pulleys to their highest position and stand centered between them in a split stance for a stable base.
- Grasp a handle in each hand and start with your arms extended up and out to the sides at shoulder height.
- Brace your core and sweep both handles down and in front of your hips in a long arcing path, keeping a slight bend in the elbows.
- Squeeze across the lower chest as your hands meet near your hips before slowly returning to the start.
- Move at a controlled tempo, exhaling as you pull down and inhaling as you return to the top.
- Keep your torso upright throughout rather than leaning forward to help drive the handles down.
