Weekly Wednesday Workout: Reverse Flys
Today we are going to work on a beautifully sculpted back!

I love this move, I feel so official when I am doing this one! You can use this one with dumbbells or without but be careful with the weight on the dumbbells as this move can tires yours muscles out super quick. If you must then you should use a light weight like three pounds or under or maybe even two water bottles. Try to make sure you keep proper form too. The back is one of the least paid attention muscle areas on a woman’s body so don’t you think its time we showed it a little love? 🙂

Why is the song “sugar how’d you get so fly?” playing in my head right now? Hahaha. Love these, of course, and should definitely be a staple in any cross-training. Runners need strong backs for all that pounding!…yes, it’s all relating to running now…:-)
lol because clearly this move requires a soundtrack!! 🙂 I LOVE HOW ITS ALL RELATED TO RUNNING!!!
Yup, this is one with my back staying far away from, but still just wanted to stop by and show you some Wednesday love! 🙂
right I know…sorry :/ maybe next week? 🙂
Matthew has me doing these on back days & ohhhhhh they burn so good! I’m already seeing more definition too.
super fun!
The lifting program that I just finished (Chalean Extreme) has lots of these – love them even though I can’t lift very heavy!
I don’t know who can lift heavy with this move! Our back muscles are super small and can’t deal with that much.
Yes! Good for posture! Especially key when your big preggo belly is pulling you forward all day long!
ESPECIALLY for you britt!! Just be careful when bending over!
I am so with you on the back! Backs need exercise!
And of course, you have to be so careful not to hurt it. I know a lot of people have back problems.
I know…I have some too from my first c-section. blah!
I’m going to try this move. I recently started going to a chiropractor and they did a scan which measures the strength of your back muscles. My back muscles are really weak so I really need to use this exercise to help my back muscles.
Awesome! so glad you could find this move useful.
This is one of those tough-but-love-em moves. I tend to hold a lot of stress between my shoulder blades and moves like this really help with having a strong back to keep better posture and feel less sore from sitting at a desk all day. Great choice!
I hold a lot of stress there too! I especially notice it because I am always sitting in terrible posture. I need to change that for sure.
This is a great move! Women and men can improve their posture by working out their backs. I haven’t tried this move yet but I will for sure.
yes its definitely a goodie!
Nice to hear that some women give attention to their backs. Chiropractic care can help a lot in improving fitness results and preventing injuries especially in the back and spine area. Good job!
