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.

# Rear Delt Fly
The reverse pec deck — facing the pad, arms sweep from the front out
wide and back, hitting what pressing never touches.
- **Category:** Main circuit
- **Type:** Machine-based reverse fly
- **Targets:** Rear delts, mid-back
- **Prescription:** 3 × 1215, light
## Setup
Set the handles to the rear-fly position and sit facing the pad, chest
supported, handles together in front at shoulder height, arms long with
soft elbows.
## Execution
1. Sweep both arms out and back as far as the shoulder blades allow.
2. Pause with the arms wide, squeezing between the shoulder blades.
3. Return forward under control without the stack touching down.
## Cues
- Lead with the knuckles, arms long — it's a sweep, not a row.
- Chest glued to the pad; no leaning back for leverage.
- Light weight, full arc — momentum defeats the rear delts instantly.
## Common Mistakes
- Bending the elbows into a rowing motion.
- Loading too heavy and shortening the arc.
- Shrugging the traps into the sweep.
## Progression
More reps and a longer pause out wide before more weight; the Face Pull
covers the same territory from the cable stack.
