This move is called a Basic Butterfly because your not using a Split Grip yet! We will be using the forearm or elbow grip allowing you to keep the body closer to the pole.

Strengthens: Trapezius, Latissimus, Pectorals, Deltoids, Triceps, Biceps, Hamstrings, Calf, Abdominals
Polecat88 - Hi Veena, when I do my butterfly the pole rests against my chest - is it wrong for it to do this?

StudioVeena - In a basic butterfly it's ok if the chest touches the pole but just be sure your holding strong in the shoulders and arms.

Polecat88 - Thanks, I might play around a bit see if I can lift it off a bit. x

StudioVeena - If your really resting on it that probably means your not off to the side of the pole far enough when you caterpillar up into the move...the pole should be right by the shoulder of the griping arm. :)

Shanghai Coaster - this might seem like a stupid question but I dont get how to doo the elbow grip, my hand is just stuck in some weird split grip that is not very stable...
