Top answer

A fly and a press are two different kinds of weight-lifting exercises. if you pair them, you do them together because they are in some way complementary, eg 10 flies followed by 10 presses. I assume a machine fly involves using some kind of gym machine.

Using dumbbells does not usually involve a machine. They are what are termed free wights.
