This
is a very good exercise for helping to shape the
chest, and is also a good way to finish off a chest
workout. You can work different areas of your chest
by varying the tilt of your upper body.
1
Stand with your feet slightly wider than a
shoulder-width apart with your back facing the cable
machine. Select a light weight, grasp the handles,
and then bend at the waist, keeping your arms out to
the side of your body with your elbows slightly
bent.
2
Inhale, keep your abdominals tight, then bring
in your arms, making them meet in front of your
chest. Make sure that your wrists, elbows, and
shoulders are traveling in the same line until your
hands meet in the middle.
3
Hold for a second and squeeze your chest. Then,
keeping the movement under control, ease your arms
back to the start - stretch your chest, making sure
that your shoulders are relaxed and your back is
straight.
