Strength exercise
Reverse Fly Machine
How to do it
- Sit facing the pec deck machine's back pad and grip the handles positioned in front of you at chest height.
- Press your chest against the pad and set your feet flat on the floor for a stable base.
- Brace your core, then pull both handles back and apart in an arc until your arms are extended out to the sides.
- Squeeze the posterior deltoid and upper back at the end of the movement before slowly returning the handles to the front.
- Keep a controlled tempo through both directions, exhaling as you pull back and inhaling as you return.
- Keep your chest pressed into the pad rather than arching your back to pull the handles farther.
