Ape Incline Chest Fly

The APE Incline Chest Fly is a plate-loaded incline chest fly machine that gives the upper chest its own station. You sit back at an incline, bring the handles together in an arc, and add plates as you get stronger. It suits gyms and studios that already press and want a dedicated fly.

Key Features of the APE Incline Fly

What the design gives your chest day:

✅ Plates add load as your chest gets stronger
✅ Tube profile options to suit your gym's look
✅ Frees your bench and cables for other lifts

What does an incline chest fly machine do?

It isolates the upper chest. You sit back at an incline and bring your arms across your body while the machine guides the arc, so the upper pecs lead with the front shoulders helping. It is a push-pattern movement, so it belongs on push or chest days beside your presses.

A fly isolates; it does not replace your presses. Our incline bench angle guide explains how angle shifts the work toward the upper chest.

APE fly or our other incline fly?

Choose the APE fly when a lighter frame suits your room. Choose the HHF Commercial DH14A when you want the heavier frame; it also offers custom color and upholstery on import.

Converted from the manufacturer's metric figures.

How much room does the fly need?

Plan the spot before the freight is booked:

1. Mark the listed product size on your floor.
2. Leave space beside the handles for entry and for plates.
3. Check the path from the delivery truck to the room.

The fly ships in a 59.1 × 31.5 × 19.7 in crate, so measure every doorway, turn and stair before you order.

Pair it with a press to cover the whole chest. The APE standing vertical chest press is the sibling machine for that.

Who does the incline fly suit?

A good match if you:

• Already own a set of weight plates
• Have room for a single-purpose machine
• Can plan your purchase weeks ahead

Better to skip if you:

• Want one machine for many exercises
• Expect the fly to replace your presses
• Want a pin-loaded weight stack

More chest stations sit in our plate-loaded chest and shoulder machines.

Incline chest fly FAQs

How do you use an incline chest fly machine?

Sit back against the pad, grip the handles and bring them together in front of you with a soft bend in your elbows. Return slowly until you feel a stretch across the chest. Start with a light load and add plates once the arc feels smooth.

Are incline chest flies effective?

They are effective at what they do: isolating the chest through an arc with steady tension. They add to presses instead of replacing them, because presses move more load through more muscle.

Incline fly machine vs pec deck?

A pec deck sits you upright, while an incline fly leans you back to bias the upper chest. Choose the incline fly if your presses already cover the middle chest and you want upper-chest volume.

Chest fly machine or incline bench?

A fly machine guides the path, so you can load the chest without balancing dumbbells. An incline bench gives you free-weight variety for presses and flies. Pick the machine to isolate and the bench for range; our incline and decline benches cover the second route.
