How to: Lever Incline Fly
- Set the leverage machine to a comfortable position.
- Sit down with your back flat against the seat and feet planted firmly on the ground.
- Grab the handles with your elbows slightly bent, starting with your arms extended to the sides.
- Slowly bring the handles together in front of you while maintaining the bend in your elbows.
- Squeeze your chest at the top of the movement, then return to the starting position.
Common Mistakes
- Using momentum rather than muscle control.
- Letting elbows drop too low, which can put strain on the shoulders.
- Not fully extending or controlling the weight.
Modifications
- Use lighter weights or resistance bands for beginners.
- Perform the exercise in a seated position if standing is difficult.
Tips
- Keep a slight bend in your elbows throughout the movement.
- Focus on squeezing your chest muscles at the top of the movement.
- Avoid using too much weight to maintain form.
