FitCi
Step-by-step
- Place a flat bench in the middle of a dual cable station and grab the handles from the low pulleys
- Lie on your back with your arms open to the sides and elbows slightly bent
- Squeeze your chest to bring the handles together in a wide arc above your chest
- Hold the squeeze at the top for one second
- Open your arms out to the sides under control until you feel a stretch
Coaching tip
Unlike dumbbells, cables keep tension at the bottom; don't rush through the stretch position.
