How to do it
Position a flat bench between two cable machines with the pulleys set at the lowest position. Attach handles to the pulleys and lie down on the bench with your feet flat on the floor.
Grasp the handles with both hands, palms facing up, and extend your arms out to your sides at chest level.
Raise the handles over your chest in a wide arc, keeping a slight bend in your elbows, squeezing your chest at the top.
Slowly bring the handles back to the starting position with control. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Form tips
Keep a slight bend in your elbows throughout the movement to avoid straining your joints.
Focus on engaging your chest muscles throughout the movement.
Inhale as you loer the handles back down and exhale as you raise them up.
