Band High Fly

Band High Fly

Description

The band high fly uses resistance bands anchored at a high point. By pulling the bands forward and down in a fly motion, you target the upper chest and front delts. The high anchor point creates an angle that emphasizes the upper pec, similar to a high-to-low cable crossover.
