Reverse Fly
What is a Reverse Fly?
The Reverse Fly is a bodybuilder’s best-kept secret. It’s a move that works major muscle groups in your back and shoulders that are essential to our posture and overall support of our frames. The exercise has many variations, so you can do it just about anywhere: lying on a bench or standing up, with or without weights, at a gym or at home.
How do you do a Reverse Fly?
Étape 1
Start standing with your feet hip-width apart. Holding a dumbbell in each arm, bring your arms straight out in front of you. Keep your arms parallel and at shoulder height.
Étape 2
Slowly spread your arms apart to a T-shape. Move slowly and with control. The slower you go, the more you’ll feel the burn in your back and shoulder muscles.
Étape 3
With control, bring your arms back to the parallel position. Repeat the exercise.
