Incline Cable Fly
How to do it
- Set both cable pulleys to the lowest position and set an incline bench to a steep angle of around 60 degrees between them.
- Sit back against the pad and grasp a handle in each hand, starting with arms extended down and slightly behind your shoulders.
- Brace your core, then sweep both handles up and inward on a slow two count until your hands meet above your upper chest.
- Hold a brief squeeze at the top of the movement before lowering the handles back down on an even slower count.
- Keep this deliberate up-and-hold tempo for every rep, exhaling as you raise the handles and inhaling as you lower.
- Keep your head and shoulders resting against the bench rather than lifting them to help finish the movement.
