For now, the database focuses on accurate, original written guidance.

How to perform

  1. Set the seat so the handles or pads align comfortably with your chest.
  2. Bring the arms together without turning the movement into a press.
  3. Return under control to a comfortable stretch.

Tips

  • Control the movement and use a range you can repeat consistently.
  • Choose a load or variation that lets you keep the chest as the intended focus.

Common mistakes

  • Using more load or speed than you can control.
  • Losing stable body position during the difficult portion.
