i Instructions

  1. 1. Setup: Position a decline bench facing a dual cable pulley station. Lie down securely, hook your feet, retract your scapulae, and brace your core.
  2. 2. Eccentric phase: Lower the handles outward and downward in a controlled 4-second descent, feeling a deep stretch across the chest.
  3. 3. Transition point: Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement while maintaining full muscular tension.
  4. 4. Concentric phase: Press the handles back up along an arc until they meet, contracting your pectoral muscles forcefully at the top.
  5. 5. Breathing and safety: Inhale deeply before lowering the weight and exhale through the sticking point during the press.
