Suspended Chest Fly

Suspended Chest Fly is an effective exercise that targets the chest muscles. To begin, adjust the straps of the exercise to an appropriate height. Then lean into the handles with your arms out in front of you, and brace your feet against a stable object if necessary. As you perform the exercise, allow your arms to move laterally away from the midline of the body, and lower your torso between the handles. The elbows may bend slightly during the movement. Pause when the upper arm is perpendicular to the torso, and then return to the starting position. This exercise will help to strengthen and tone the chest muscles.

1. First, adjust the straps to a height that is appropriate for you. Remember that the lower the position, the more difficult the movement will be.
2. Next, lean into the handles with your arms out in front of you. If needed, brace your feet against a stable object for added stability. Make sure your body is straight, your spine is neutral, and your arms are extended with your palms facing each other. This will be your starting position.
3. To perform the exercise, allow your arms to move laterally away from the midline of your body. Lower your torso between the handles, and you may notice a slight bend in your elbows during the movement. Pause when your upper arms are perpendicular to your torso.
