Reverse Fly

Exercise Description:

The reverse fly is an excellent workout to have in your arsenal. It's a movement that targets a major muscle group, while engaging multiple other muscle groups to create a stable and controlled movement.

We have listed a couple injuries that this exercise can help with. Regarding those injuries, your should use this exercise after you have built up the stability and movement muscles required to perform this exercise. That would most likely mean being able to perform the following exercises perfectly, i.e. total control through the movement, while maintaining stability around the the shoulder joint.


When we state an injury we are specifically talking about an exercise that can speed up recovery, which almost always means a exercise/movement that targets the stability of a joint to perform a workout. 

Once you can complete these workouts with ease, no pain, and proper form, then you would start to perform this exercise.  

Also when it comes to "pains" felt when performing this exercise, asses your form and range of motion. If you have some one that can watch you, ask them to, or you can use a camera to film yourself.  You want to see:

  •  how high can you go, i.e. are arms coming up to the same plane as your chest
  • are elbows bent too much/ too little
  •  is one side lower then the other, i.e. is one shoulder blade not engaging fully?

Remember, the "life goal" is to be able to lift just as heavy now as when you are 85, 95, or 110 years old.
