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).
