'Strength Training : Performing Standing Cable Flyes with Global Fitness Institute Check out our website - www.globalfitness.edu.au Please like and subscribe to our video channel Cable chest flyes is an isolation exercise for the chest and front deltoids. Compared to dumbbell chest flyes, the resistance curve in cable flyes is more evenly distributed, and you have more of a constant load on your chest muscles throughout the whole range of motion. A variant of this exercise is to fasten the handles in the lower position of the cable cross, and do more of an upwards-going motion when you bring the handles together. Standing Cable Flyes Instructions Set both pulleys directly at (or slightly above) shoulder height and select the desired weight. Grasp both handles with a neutral grip and take a step forward to split the stance. Press the handles to lockout while flexing the pecs and extending the elbows. Keep a slight bend in the elbows, move entirely at the shoulder joint, and slowly allow the arms to open while the pecs stretch. Return to the starting position by flexing your pecs and bringing the handles together at chest height. Slowly lower back to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions. Standing Cable Fly Tips Imagine you’re trying to hug a tree while completing the exercise. Don’t squeeze the handles excessively tight as this can over recruit the forearms and biceps thereby reducing activation of the pecs. Avoid touching or banging the handles together at peak contraction to keep constant tension on the intended muscle groups. Always keep a slight bend in the elbows and never lower the weight to the point where you get any sort of pain and pressure at the front of the shoulder joint. Ensure you maintain some tension in your abs and don’t allow your lower back to arch excessively.
