yeah, i had these on my bench too .. didnt like them very much ..
basically you load weight on each side and you can do a kind of isolated dumbell fly with it ...
i didnt like it because i have long arms and i felt like the rom was completly wrong ...
i took mine off and just use it on flat and incline ....
if you wanna do flys just do them freeweight ...

yep that right, it uses your bicep to keep it in that position. wont make your bicep grow tho as it aint putting that much stress on it
