What it works

Chest

How to do it

  1. 1Set both pulleys high (or low for an upward fly), take a handle in each hand, and step forward into a split stance with a slight forward lean.
  2. 2With a fixed soft elbow bend, bring the handles together in front of you and squeeze.
  3. 3Cables keep tension on the chest at the top, which dumbbells lose — pause there.

Cues that matter
