Chest Fly and Press Up
Positioning
1. Starting Position:
Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Keep a slight bend in your knees.
Engage your core for stability.
Start with your arms extended in front of you, palms facing each other at chest level.
Movement Instructions
Chest Fly Motion:
Gradually open your arms out to the sides (like a bird flapping its wings), keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
Lower your arms until they are parallel to the floor, or as far as comfortable, feeling a stretch in your chest.
Press Up Motion:
Bring the arms back together in front of you, squeezing your chest.
As your arms come together, lift them overhead, extending fully.
Return to Starting Position:
Lower your arms back down to the starting position at chest level.
Tips for Beginners
Focus on maintaining control throughout the movements; avoid rushing.
If using weights, choose a light amount that allows you to maintain form.
Breathe steadily: exhale while opening your arms (fly) and inhale while bringing them back together (press up).
Start with 10-15 repetitions, resting as needed.
