All about the Incline Reverse Dumbbell Fly
(Back Finish)
BENEFITS & MUSCLES WORKED: Upper Back, Rhomboids, Shoulders
START POSITION: 45° (or a little less) is the key angle to use for this exercise. Note the feet position – heels up and resting on the ‘balls of the feet’. Straight spine. Head up but looking downwards.
NOTES: Difficulty Rating: 67%
The Incline Reverse Fly will target the muscles in the upper back. It works the rhomboid muscles in your upper back and shoulder region. Strong upper back muscles help balance your shoulder strength and help protect your shoulders from injury.
Very light weights should be used for beginners and those with back or shoulder injuries—high reps. Pause for a split second at the top position, and only go as high as is comfortable – no jerky or forceful movements – keep it smooth and steady.
A beautiful and essential exercise.
