Instructions
- Attach the rope attachment to the lowest level of the cable station machine. Start by kneeling on the floor with your outer knee (the knee furthest from the weight stack) bent at a 90-degree angle. Keep that foot on the ground at all times. Extend your arms and hold the rope with an overhand grip, making sure your hands are shoulder-width apart.
- Squeeze your torso, squeeze your buttocks, and use your torso to pull the rope up and across your body over the opposite shoulder. Return to starting position.
Tips
- Don't overexert your lower back, but focus on keeping your spine high and straight.
