How to do it

1. Stand with your back facing the ski ergometer machine, feet shoulder-width apart. Hold the handles with both hands. Arms extended out to the sides at shoulder height.
2. Begin by pulling both handles inward towards each other in a fly motion, keeping a slight bend in your elbows and squeezing your chest muscles as your hands come together.
3. Pause briefly when the handles are close together in front of your chest, ensuring a strong contraction.
4. Slowly extend your arms back to the starting position with control, maintaining a steady rhythm. Repeat the movement for the desired duration or number of repetitions.

Form tips

• Keep a slight bend in your elbows to reduce strain on your joints.
• Maintain a steady pace to ensure consistent tension in the muscles.
• Focus on engaging your chest muscles throughout the movement.
