Fanatix Gym Halifax

Monday hits different when life’s already heavy.

For a lot of people, the gym isn’t about aesthetics. It’s not about PBs. It’s the one hour in the day where the noise gets quieter.

If you’re going through it right now — this is your sign.

Come down. First session’s on us.

HOW TO: Flat Chest Press 🎯

PT Joe Jenkins on one of the most effective chest builders in the gym — with a clever twist most people miss. 👀

This machine has two handles for a reason:

🔹 Inner grip — more tricep involvement, stronger lockout, great for pressing power
🔹 Outer grip — bigger stretch on the chest, more pec activation, better for hypertrophySame machine. Two completely different stimuli. Use both. 💪

Key points for either grip:
✅ Back flat against the pad
✅ Feet planted
✅ Lower under control — feel the stretch
✅ Drive through the chest, not the shoulders
✅ Don't lock out aggressively

HOW TO: Lying Nautilus Pec & Rear Delt Fly 🎯

PT Joe Jenkins on one of the rarest pieces of kit you'll find in any gym.

Two exercises. One machine. Lying down for maximum isolation. 💪

Pec Fly (face up):
✅ Lie flat, back pressed into the pad
✅ Elbows slightly bent, locked in position
✅ Bring the arms together over your chest
✅ Squeeze hard, control the negative

Rear Delt Fly (face down):
✅ Lie face down on the pad
✅ Lead with the elbows
✅ Pull the arms out and back
✅ Squeeze your rear delts at full extensionLying down takes momentum out the equation — pure, strict form. 🔥
