Cable Fly/Crossover?

I was looking at the Bowflex Revolution machine and how the adjustible arms for their cables can go out far to the sides. It seems like it would make a really cool bench press or fly that focuses a lot more emphasis on the chest since you're pulling the handles inwards.

A lot more than dumbbells.

Plus, also unlike gravity-based implements, there's nothing stopping you at the middle point. Unlike dumbbells which lose resistance in the middle and actually work your back muscles in a stretched position past it, it would just get harder and harder!

If you want to pay $2000 for a machine just so you can do flys then go right ahead.

Why dont you jus do it on a regular cable machine? Bowflexes are pretty useless imo.

Cereal...

For that kind of money you can buy a really nice machine with cables.. you know, that linear pull and all... plus free weights (darn that gravity!!!)

One word for you kid - Google And abuse it.
