Reverse Cable Flyes are a great exercise for targeting the rear deltoids and upper back. This movement involves pulling cables outward in a reverse fly motion, which helps improve shoulder strength and stability.

Muscles Worked

  • Rear Deltoids (back of the shoulders)
  • Rhomboids (middle of the back)
  • Trapezius (upper back and neck)

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Perform Reverse Cable Flyes

  1. Set Up: Stand between two cable machines with the handles set at shoulder height. Grip the handles with both hands, palms facing each other.
  2. Perform the Exercise: With a slight bend in your elbows, pull the handles outward and back, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
  3. Return Slowly: Slowly return to the starting position, maintaining tension on the cables.
  4. Repeat: Perform the desired number of repetitions, focusing on a controlled movement and proper form.
