Cable Fly

Chest Machine

Description

The cable chest fly is a resistance exercise targeting the pectoral muscles, primarily the pectoralis major. Using a cable machine with handles set at shoulder height, individuals stand in a staggered stance and extend their arms out to the sides, then bring them together in front of the body in a hugging motion, focusing on squeezing the chest muscles. This exercise effectively isolates and strengthens the chest muscles, promoting muscle growth and enhancing upper body strength and definition when performed with proper form and control.

How To

01 Lie on a bench between two cable stacks
02 Grip a handle in each hand, arms out wide
03 Keep a slight bend in your elbows
04 Sweep the handles together over your chest
05 Squeeze your chest, then return with control
