Method

Stand between two high pulleys, lean forward slightly and hold the D-handles attached to them with your arms by your side as shown in the picture.

Your feet should be placed wide apart so that you have good balance.

From this start position, bring the D-handles to touch each other in front of your body.

Squeeze your chest and return to start position.

Avoid

Excessive weights.

Rocking action.

Allowing the elbows to move excessively backwards at the start position as it might strain the front part of the shoulder.

Targeted muscles

Trains the chest muscle.

It puts major emphasis on upper and inner regions of the chest.

Who benefits

When combined with rigorous dieting and cardiovascular training, this helps to display the muscle fibres of the chest.
