Standing Cable Reverse Fly Guide and Tips

The standing cable reverse fly is one type of reverse fly that works to strengthen the rear deltoids.

For many lifters, the rear deltoids are a lagging body area, but they are also essential for maintaining good posture all day.It is possible to improve posture and shoulder stability during pressing and overhead movements by developing strong and active rear delts.

Standing cable reverse flys are a great addition to your whole body, back and shoulder exercises.

Guidelines for Standing Cable Reverse Fly

  • Attach a handle and place two cables at chest height.
  • With a neutral grip reach across your body and seize one handle.Continue with the other arm.
  • Place the arms in this position.
  • Maintain a slight bend in the knees while extending your arms straight ahead while holding onto each handle.
  • Pull the handles laterally while maintaining a modest bend in the elbows to avoid too compressing the shoulder blades together.
  • Reposition the handles gradually and carefully to their starting positions.
  • Continue till the desired number of times

Tips for Standing Cable Reverse Fly

  • Movement at the shoulder blade should be minimal because the goal is to concentrate on the back deltoids rather than the scapular retractors.
  • Instead of moving the shoulder blade on the rib cage, move the shoulder inside the joint.
  • At the peak of the exercise don’t arch your back; instead keep your abdominal tight.
  • Avoid cocking your head forward while performing the exercise; the goal is to activate a tiny muscle group.Don’t rely on momentum during the movement; instead, concentrate.
  • Don’t lock out the elbows, but do let the arms move freely.
  • In the event that handle attachments are unavailable, you might be able to cease using the cables by just gripping their ends as most come with an easily graspable plastic ball as a built in stopper.
