HOW TO DO TRX CHEST FLY

HOW TO DO

Starting Position:

  1. Stand facing the TRX suspension trainer with your feet about hip-width apart.

  2. Hold onto the handles with an overhand grip, palms facing each other.

  3. Walk your feet back until your body is at a slight angle, with your arms extended straight in front of you and your weight supported by your upper body.

Form:

  1. Inhale and slowly open your arms out to the sides, lowering your chest towards the floor.

  2. Keep your arms straight and your core engaged as you lower your body.

  3. Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement when your arms are out to the sides.

  4. Exhale and reverse the motion by bringing your arms together in a hugging motion, returning to the starting position.

Personal Trainer Tips:

  • Control the range of motion to protect your shoulders and rotator cuff. Start with a small range of motion and gradually increase it as you build strength and stability.

  • Avoid opening your arms too wide, especially beyond parallel with your trunk, to prevent excessive strain on the shoulder ligaments and muscles.

  • If you experience shoulder pain, decrease the range of motion and ensure proper form. Consult a licensed health professional if pain persists.

Note:

  • Chest flyes with the TRX are more challenging than the chest press due to the increased range of motion and instability. Beginners should master the chest press before attempting chest flyes.

  • The TRX suspension trainer offers versatility and portability, allowing for effective upper body workouts at home or outdoors.

Advanced Variation:

  • To further engage your core muscles, lift one leg off the floor while performing chest flyes. This increases the challenge of stabilizing your body weight and maintaining proper alignment.
