How To Perform the Machine Reverse Fly

  3. Inhale and brace your core.
  4. Exhale as you slowly pull the handles apart, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
  5. Hold the contraction for a second while maintaining a slight bend in your elbows.
  6. Inhale as you slowly return to the starting position, controlling the movement.
