Reverse Fly w/ Tube and Dumbbells 

    

  1. Begin by sitting on step or chair and placing light tubing under feet to secure it, wrapping either side of tube around light dumbbells.
  2. Start the move by bending forward and grasping the tube/weights in either hand, palms face each other.
  3. Squeeze the shoulder blades together and lift the arms up to the sides, elbows slightly bent, to shoulder level.
  4. Lower back down and repeat. 
  5. Adjust the tension of the tube as needed to add challenge while still keeping good form.

Tips:

  • Do not lift the arms higher than shoulder level
  • Avoid this move if you feel pain in the shoulders (or anywhere else)
  • If you don't feel safe and in control, choose one type of resistance to use
