How to do a cable incline fly

Setup:

1. Bench position: Set an incline bench roughly halfway between two cable pulley stations. Adjust the angle to a comfortable incline (usually 30-45 degrees).
2. Cable height: Adjust the cable pulleys to a low position, slightly above the floor.
3. Grip: Grab a handle in each hand with palms facing each other. Lie back on the bench, maintaining your core tightness.

The Lift:

1. Starting Position: Extend your arms out to your sides, maintaining a slight bend in your elbows. This is your starting position.
2. The Arc: In a controlled arcing motion, bring your hands together in front of your chest, maintaining the slight bend throughout.
3. Squeeze: At the top of the movement, briefly squeeze your chest muscles.
4. Reverse the movement: Slowly return to the starting position, following the same arcing path.
5. Reset: Breathe and prepare for the next repetition.

Tips:

• Focus on the chest: Concentrate on using your chest muscles rather than just moving your arms.
• Maintain Tension: Don't let the weight "rest" at the bottom of the movement, maintain tension in your chest.
• Variations: Experiment with different bench angles to target different areas of the chest.
