Beschrijving
Incline Cable Fly is an upper chest isolation exercise performed on an incline bench with a cable machine. This exercise intensely targets the upper chest muscles (clavicular portion of pectoralis major) and front shoulder muscles. The constant tension provided by the cable machine keeps muscle fibers active throughout the movement. It offers a smoother resistance curve compared to fly movements performed with free weights. It is considered one of the most effective isolation exercises for upper chest development. It is recommended to use as a complement after compound movements in chest training.
