The Resistance Band Reverse Fly primarily works the shoulders, with the middle back and triceps supporting the movement. It is a strength movement performed with bands.
1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Run a band around a stationary post like that of a squat rack.
Grab the band by the handles and stand back so that the tension in the band rises.
Extend and lift the arms straight in front of you. Tip: Your arms should be straight and parallel to the floor while perpendicular to your torso. Your feet should be firmly planted on the floor spread at shoulder width. This will be your starting position.
As you exhale, move your arms to the sides and back. Keep your arms extended and parallel to the floor. Continue the movement until the arms are extended to your sides.
After a pause, go back to the original position as you inhale.
Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

General guidance based on the exercise and equipment. It is not personal coaching or medical advice.
Your progress
Keep the same bands setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Resistance Band Reverse Fly sessions.
Repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 10, 9 and 8 completed reps. Keep each set separate instead of recording only the total.
Compare repetitions using the same variation and range. A different variation needs its own history; extra reps are not directly comparable if the movement changes.
