  "overview": "The Lever Pec Deck Fly is a strength-building exercise targeting the chest muscles, particularly the pectoralis major. It's ideal for individuals at an intermediate fitness level who want to improve their upper body strength and muscle definition. By incorporating this exercise into their routine, users can enhance their overall appearance, boost functional strength, and improve performance in sports and activities requiring strong chest muscles.",
  "instructions": [
    "Sit on the pec deck machine with your back firmly against the pad and place your forearms on the padded levers, ensuring elbows and shoulders are aligned.",
    "Push the levers together slowly, focusing on squeezing your chest muscles, until your hands meet in front of your chest.",
    "Hold this position for a second to maximize contraction of the chest muscles.",
    "Slowly return to the starting position, allowing your chest to stretch, and repeat for the desired reps."
  ],
  "exerciseTips": [
    "Controlled Movements: Avoid using momentum to lift heavier weights. Focus on slow, controlled reps to properly target the pectorals.",
    "Full Range of Motion: Bring handles together until they touch, then return until chest is fully stretched. Avoid stopping early or overextending.",
    "Proper Breathing: Exhale as you bring the handles together and inhale as you return."
  ],
  "variations": [
    "Cable Crossover: Uses a cable machine for constant tension on the pectorals.",
    "Resistance Band Chest Fly: Mimics the motion with bands, adding flexibility in workout location and intensity.",
    "Incline Dumbbell Fly: Performed on an incline bench, targeting the upper chest muscles more than the standard fly.",
    "Standing Cable Fly: Done standing with cables, targeting the chest from a different angle."
