rzen 7c241ec44c Ship the 47-exercise library in-app: export, fixtures, tests, docs
render.py --export bundles the 25 new motion rigs and info pages;
figure-fixtures.json regenerated for all 47 (the Swift solver reproduces
every new motion, including negative-y pins and the new prop uses). The
fixture count assertion moves to 47, and the no-bundled-motion test now
uses Treadmill - a permanent COVERAGE.md exclusion - since Bench Press
exists. 48 tests green; watch target builds. Coverage handoff complete -
TODO-coverage.md retired.

# Dumbbell Fly
The chest isolation — arms sweep from wide open to over the chest in a
hugging arc, elbows softly fixed.
- **Category:** Main circuit
- **Type:** Free-weight chest fly (dumbbells)
- **Targets:** Chest, front delts
- **Prescription:** 3 × 1015, light and controlled
## Setup
Lie on the flat bench with light dumbbells pressed over the chest, palms
facing each other, a slight fixed bend in the elbows.
## Execution
1. Open the arms in a wide arc until you feel a full chest stretch —
hands about level with the chest, never below the shoulders' comfort.
2. Keep the elbow angle unchanged the entire way.
3. Sweep back up as if hugging a barrel, squeezing the chest together.
## Cues
- It's an arc, not a press — the elbows never bend and extend.
- Go light; the stretch does the work, not the load.
- Stop the descent the moment the chest stretch peaks.
## Common Mistakes
- Bending the elbows on the way down and pressing back up.
- Dropping too deep and straining the shoulders.
- Using bench-press weights.
## Progression
Slow the lowering phase and pause in the stretch; the Pec Deck offers
the same motion with the path guided.
