1. Set the cable machine to the lowest position and attach a single handle to the pulley.
2. Position yourself: Stand side-on to the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent.
3. Grip the handle: Grasp the single handle with the hand that is furthest from the machine. Your palm should be facing down.
4. Bend forward at your waist, keeping your back straight and your core engaged, until your upper body is almost parallel to the floor.
5. From the starting position, begin with your arm extended towards the cable machine.
6. Pull the handle across your body and upwards in a diagonal path until it is above shoulder height on the opposite side of your body, keeping your arm almost straight with a slight bend in the elbow.
7. Contract your chest muscles as you perform this crossing motion.
8. Return the handle back to the starting position, following the same diagonal path.
9. Perform your desired number of repetitions before switching arms and repeating the movement on the other side.
