Description: Sit Down and Setup: Sit on the Chest Press Machine and select your desired weight. Step on the lever to bring the handles forward for easy access. Grip the Handles: Grab the handles with a palms-down grip. Lift your elbows to make your upper arms parallel to the floor, aligning your forearms forward. Starting Position: Extend your arms fully while holding the handles in front of you. This is your starting position. Perform the Press: Inhale as you bring the handles back towards you, keeping control of the movement. Execute the Press: Push the handles away from you while flexing your pecs and exhaling. Hold the contraction for a second. Repeat: Return to the starting position and repeat for the recommended number of repetitions. Finish: After completing your reps, step on the lever again to slowly return the handles to their original place. Variations: Consider variations like using free weights (barbells or dumbbells) on a regular bench or using a pulley machine for different training stimuli.
