CHEST
Cable Bench Press
Adjust the seat back to the upright position and the Functional Train-
ing Arms to chest height. Sit upright, grab the cable handles with an
overhand grip, and press away from your chest. 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 exercises,
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).
