Here is how to do a High Cable Fly:

  1. Stand tall in the middle of a cable machine, holding a D-handle attached to the high pulley in each hand with a slight bend in your elbows.
  2. Keeping your chest up and core braced, initiate the move and – still with that bend in your elbows – bring your hands around in front of your body to meet between chest and bellybutton height.
  3. As your hands come together, rotate your wrists so your palms face upwards, then hold your hands together with little fingers touching, squeezing your chest muscles hard.
  4. Focusing on how this movement of your wrist and arms places tension on the middle of your chest, hold the position for a one or two count.
  5. Slowly reverse the movement all the way to the start, keeping full control of the weight throughout the return.
