Starting Position
1. Sit on the machine, lean your back against the backrest, and firmly place your feet on the footrest or floor.
2. Hold the handle with one hand and position your elbow next to your chest.
3. Use your opposite hand to hold your thigh or the machine's handle to stabilize your body.
Proper Form
1. Push forward with the arm holding the handle until it is almost fully extended.
2. Feel the contraction in the lower chest for a moment, then slowly return to the starting position.
3. Perform the exercise with one arm for the specified number of repetitions, then repeat the same with the opposite arm.
4. Ensure that the number of repetitions and weight are the same for both arms to minimize strength differences.
Breathing Technique
Exhale when pushing the handle out, and inhale when returning to the starting position.
Precautions
1. Do not excessively arch your back, and keep your upper body pressed against the backrest.
2. Maintain a consistent angle for your wrists and elbows to avoid straining your joints.
3. If one side feels too strained, lower the weight to perform both sides stably.
