How to do it

  1. Place an upright bench between two pulleys and set them at about chest height when you're seated.
  2. Sit with your back against the pad and take a handle in each hand, arms wide and elbows slightly bent.
  3. Bring the handles together in front of your chest in a wide arc, squeezing your chest.
  4. Let them return slowly until you feel a stretch, keeping your back against the pad.

Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
