CHEST

Cable Decline Bench Press

Adjust the seat back to one of the holes in the INCLINE position. Your comfort will determine which hole exactly. Adjust the Function- al Training Arms to chest height. Sit back in the seat so that the seat back forces a forward lean. Grab the cable handles with an overhand grip and press away from your chest, parallel to the floor. Return slowly.

Variations: Use an underhand grip, neutral grip, or even twist your wrists (like a karate punch). You can also vary the width of the Func- tional Training Arms. Changing the grip and width does emphasize different areas of the muscle group. As with all cable oriented exer- cises, this exercise can be performed one arm at a time.

Primary muscles worked: Pectorals Major and Minor (chest), Anterior

Deltoids (shoulder), Triceps (back of the arm).
