Overview

The pec deck is a machine-based exercise targeting the chest. It approximates the motion of a dumbbell fly or cable fly, but is usually performed facing forward and seated upright. The motion is often compared to bear-hugging a tree trunk. The chest fly is usually performed for moderate to high reps, such as 8-12 reps per set or more, as part of a pre-exhaust or muscle-building upper-body workout.

Variations of fitness exercises refer to different ways of performing a specific exercise or movement to target various muscle groups, intensities, or goals. These variations aim to challenge the body differently, prevent plateaus, and cater to individuals with varying fitness levels.

Alternatives

These alternative exercises can be used as substitutes when the original exercise is unavailable or challenging to perform due to various reasons such as equipment limitations, injuries, or personal preferences.
