Cable Standing Pulldown

Attach a rope to a high cable pulley and hold the ends with an overhand grip.

Stand facing the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and hinge forward slightly from your hips.

Keep your arms nearly straight with a soft bend in your elbows and brace your core.

Pull the rope down and back toward your hips in a sweeping arc until your hands reach your thighs.

Pause for a brief moment at the bottom, squeezing your lats tightly.

Slowly return the rope back to the starting position with control, letting your arms rise until they are fully extended overhead.
