Target Muscles
Instructions
- Attach the rope attachment at the lowest level to the cable station machine. Begin by kneeling on the floor with your outer knee (the knee farthest from the weight stack) bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep that foot on the ground at all times.
- With your arms fully extended, grasp the rope with an overhand grip shoulder-width apart. Tighten your abs and squeeze your buttocks to keep your torso from moving. Pull the rope up and across your body to the opposite shoulder. Then return back to the starting position.
Tips
- Be sure to keep your torso square and upright throughout the movement.
- Don't hyperextend your lower back, but focus on keeping a tall, straight spine.
