The cable crossover is a great isolation exercise that targets the chest muscles with unrivalled precision. In addition, the cable fly tones the shoulder muscles and the core as the secondary target groups.

Instructions

Step 1: Stand straight in between the pulleys with a slightly bent torso. Place the pulley at an appropriate position, select an appropriate weight and pull the cable attachment towards the chest.

Step 2: Slowly, move the arms outward until you feel an extension in the chest and the shoulder region. While moving the arms, ensure that there is no unnecessary movement in any other directions.

Step 3: Hold for a moment and return to the initial position.

Perform the exercise for the recommended number of repetitions.

Important tips: Adjust the height of the pulley to target different muscle groups in the chest region. Do not work with a very high resistance, focus on improving the rep count.
