This page tells you what the machine is. Step-by-step instructions, common mistakes and a video of the movement are in the Luio app — the video shows the range of motion that text cannot describe.
⚠️ Most common mistake: Letting the elbows flare wide, which strains the front shoulders and pulls focus off the lower chest. Rushing the descent and missing the deep chest stretch that drives hypertrophy. Pressing the handles unevenly, creating side-to-side imbalances over time. Lifting the hips off the bench for leverage, which destabilizes the press and risks back strain.
💪 Where you should feel it: Mainly in the Chest. The Triceps assist.
