Cable Lying Fly

Target Muscle

Secondary Muscles

Equipment

1

Grab the cable handles with your palms facing inward and extend your arms out to the sides, keeping a slight bend in your elbows to avoid strain.

2

Slowly bring the handles together above your chest by squeezing your pectoral muscles, keeping your arms slightly bent throughout the movement.

3

Hold the contraction at the top for a moment, then slowly lower the handles back to the starting position, ensuring you're controlling the movement and not letting the weight pull you.

4

Repeat this movement for the desired number of repetitions, remembering to keep your movements slow and controlled, and your focus on the chest muscles.

Pro Tip

Proper Grip: When gripping the cable handles, make sure your palms are facing each other and your elbows are slightly bent. This will prevent unnecessary strain on your wrists and elbows. Avoid fully extending your arms or locking your elbows, as this can lead to injury. Controlled Movement: The Cable Lying Fly is not about speed, but controlled, smooth movements. As you bring the cables together, squeeze your chest muscles and hold for a moment before slowly returning to the starting position. Avoid letting the cables snap back quickly, as this can cause injury and won't effectively work your muscles. Bre
