Standing Cable Crossover Press / Flyes
How to Do Standing Cable Crossover Press / Flyes
- Stand between two cable stations with the dumbbell grip handles attached to the high pulleys on each side of you.
- Hold the handles with an overhand grip. Your arms should be outstretched.
- Bend your knees and hips slightly so that you are leaning forward, but not too far.
- Bend your elbows slightly and rotate your shoulders in towards the centre of your chest a little. Your elbows should be slightly behind you.
- Use a hugging motion, keeping your elbows in a fixed, bent position to bring the grip attachments together in front of your chest.
- Slowly return to the starting position until you feel a slight stretch in your chest muscles.
- Repeat.
