High-to-low cable chest fly

The high-to-low cable chest fly is an isolation movement that uses a cable stack to target the lower portion of the pectoral muscles. It is common in upper-body and chest-focused muscle-building workouts, often after pressing movements like the barbell or dumbbell bench press or as a finishing movement at the end of the workout. It is often used in combination with other flyes to target the chest from different angles.
