Fly Machine Help

You need to lock your shoulders back. Shrug your shoulders up towards your ears, bring them back and then let them come down. That way the motion isolayes the chest.

yeah that's another thing, i never really feel any burn in my chest when doing my exercises like i do with other muscles. I feel it a bit on day 1 and moderately on day 2 but never right after finishing a set etc. That makes me think i am doing everything wrong

>just finished my last day of Month 2 which was chest day. Not seeing any muscle improvement atm but just feel way better and know I am on my way. My question is what can i do to make sure I am doing my flys right?

>I have recently had my left shoulder popping once i reach parallel to my chest and it prevents me from finishing some sets without a quick rest. It doesn't hurt too bad and is mostly just discomforting but i want to make sure i'm not fucking something up long term.
Could be an impingement, but I'm not a doctor.

>Also if you guys want i can post some progress pics and see what you guys think
Sure.

Not a fan of the fly machine, myself. I always seem to have shoulder pain even when I tuck my shoulders back. If you want good chest gains, bench, OHP, and do some low cable flys. Those are usually my go-to exercises for chest.

I have always been able to "dislocate" my arm from my shoulder which makes me believe that is the cause. It is mostly like how i can move one ear up and not the other because for some reason i can control a dormant muscle. It only moves slightly but if you look at my shoulder you can definitely see the movement. Is that double jointedness or just something weird i can do

I'm the exact same way. Just make sure your form is perfect and it won't matter whether or not you feel it, it'll still grow.

Having same issue as OP and I never thought to do this. Will definitely give it a try.

today i did decline, incline, regular bench, flys, bench machine, leverage incline press. I'll look into OHP and low cable i guess

>>40707301
Decline, Incline, and Flat bench seems like quite a bit in the same workout, doesn't seem entirely necessary. I would just stick with flat and incline if I were you.

>>40707339
ok what should i replace it with? does OHP work chest?

>>40707167
Do dips instead

>>40707378
that's right i forgot those are mainly chest, added.

Stomach looks smaller at least. Keep working hard, we're all gonna make it.
