Eccentric Phase • Dumbbells should be pressed over the pectorals with a slight elbow bend • Lower the dumbbells in alignment with the pectorals while keeping the elbows bent to avoid hyperextension of the elbows • Lower until the dumbbells are on the same vertical line as the pectorals
Concentric Phase • Use the pectorals to raise the dumbbells along the wide arc that was followed during the eccentric phase • Keep the feet and back pressed against the floor and bench • If you are unable to move the weight smoothly, lower the load to avoid injuries
Purpose of Flys • Flys are used as a supplement to any type of press movement • Used more for aesthetic purposes rather than functional movement
