Cable Fly Sculpt Your Chest with GymBudd

Want to build a strong, defined chest? At GymBudd, we know that isolation exercises are key for targeting your pectoral muscles effectively. The Cable Fly is one of the best exercises to sculpt, shape, and strengthen your chest, giving you that full, defined look.

What is the Cable Fly?

The Cable Fly is a chest isolation exercise performed using a cable machine. Unlike presses, it focuses entirely on the chest, minimizing arm and shoulder involvement. By controlling the cables throughout the motion, you achieve maximum muscle stretch and contraction, which is perfect for chest growth and definition.

How to Perform Cable Fly  GymBudd Step-by-Step Guide

1. Set Up: Stand in the middle of a cable machine with a handle in each hand. Adjust the pulleys to chest height.

2. Starting Position: Step forward slightly with a slight bend in your elbows, arms wide apart.

3. Bring Hands Together: Slowly bring your hands forward in a wide arc until they meet in front of your chest.

4. Return Slowly: Open your arms back to the starting position in a controlled motion, feeling your chest stretch.

5. Reps & Sets: Perform 10–15 reps for 3 sets, focusing on slow, deliberate movements.
