Instructions

Setup

  • Stand with your feet hip-width apart and knees slightly bent.

  • Hinge at your hips to lean your torso forward, keeping your spine neutral and your core engaged.

  • Extend your arms out to your sides, palms facing down, allowing your arms to hang naturally.

Movement

  • Squeeze your shoulder blades together to lift your arms upward and backward into a reverse fly motion.

  • Instead of lowering your arms fully, perform small, controlled pulses at the top of the movement.

  • Keep your elbows slightly soft throughout the movement to avoid strain.

  • Maintain a steady, focused tempo to keep constant tension on the rear deltoids and upper back muscles.

Key Tips

  • Avoid rounding your upper back; keep your chest open and shoulders pulled down away from your ears.

  • Ensure the movement comes from your shoulder blades rather than swinging your arms through momentum.
