View Full Version : Pec Deck users
If you're a regular user of the pec deck or feel you've gotten results from using it; discusss.
Seems the most tension is at the outermost point where your palms/fists are close together, do you feel in some way it's helping the lower center area of the pecs by the breastbone? Do you adjust the seat so your arms are either a bit higher or lower than parallel to the floor? Do you use it as part of a super set or other method?
What makes you keep using it?

I use it every workout. It gives my chest an awesome pump as well as an awesome stretch. I do not superset it, but sometimes ill do drop sets on it.
I will use the pec deck on almost every workout. I like to hold the static contracted position for 3-4 secs since it works well the inner part of the chest and then let go slowly for a good stretch. I also adjust the seat a bit lower so it targets the upper chest, it has helped me to bring that up too.
This is by far my favorite chest finisher. I prefer the seat a little higher so that my hands are angled more downward like a cable crossover. I do a lot of "stretch-pause" movements with this to get that last little amount of blood into the muscle and really work those fibers. A great choice to spark growth.

This is great for finishing off the chest. I make sure to get a good squeeze for about one to two seconds in the contracted position. Reps are 10 to 15.

It's okay......I'll do it once maybe twice a month. I like incline or flat flys on the crossover for a deep stretch.
I think maybe because our Pec deck is a bit outdated.....it's Cybex and not many people like it.
