Instructions

Cable Single Arm Low Fly (Chest)

Starting Position:
1. Set the cable pulley to a low setting on the cable machine.
2. Stand next to the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
3. Grasp the handle with one hand while keeping your arm straight down at your side.
4. Stand a few feet away from the machine to create tension in the cable.
5. Engage your core and maintain a slight bend in your elbow.

**Movement 1. With your opposite hand on your hip or by your side for balance, pull the cable handle across your body.
2. Move your arm in an arc, lifting the handle upwards and towards your chest while keeping your elbow slightly bent.
3. Focus on squeezing your chest muscles as you bring your arm across your body.
4. Once your arm is nearly parallel to the ground, hold for a moment to maximize the contraction in your chest.
5. Slowly return to the starting position by allowing your arm to move back down and across your body in a controlled manner.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other arm.

Tips:
- Keep your back straight and avoid leaning forward or backward.
- Control the movement; avoid swinging the cable to ensure maximum effectiveness.
- Start with a lighter weight to master the form before progressing to heavier weights.
