MACHINE FLY

Exercise Execution:

  • Before you start, adjust the seat height so that the handles are about level with your chest when you're sitting on the machine.
  • Select the weight you want to use on the stack.
  • Sit on the machine, grasp the handles and/or place your forearms on the padding. Take the weight off the stack slightly. This is the starting position for the exercise.
  • Keeping your body fixed, moving entirely at the shoulder, slowly bring the handles together. 
  • Squeeze the chest muscles as hard as you can, then slowly lower back to the starting position.
