PEC PLY

The Pec Fly is an ideal activity for strengthening chest muscles and core. The swinging motion engages many upper body muscles mainly the chest.

Instructions

1. Stretch and Warm-up for 5 minutes prior to any exercise.
2. Sit upright in seat facing the frame and grasp handles. Keep at arms length with your elbows slightly bent. (You may need to sit forwards in your seat.)
3. Push the handles together slowly as you squeeze your chest in the middle. Breathe in during this part of the motion.
4. Expand your chest to push your arms outwards and exhale as you are doing so. Repeat step 3 and 4 for the duration of the exercise.
5. Keep your abdominal muscles tight, engaging your core for stability.
6. Keep your head up, shoulders back.
7. Stretch appropriate muscles to ensure recovery to resting position and prevent soreness.
