Instructions
1. Attach a single handle to a low setting on a cable machine.
2. Stand beside the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart.
3. Bend at the waist to a 45-degree angle, keeping your back straight and knees slightly bent for stability.
4. Grab the handle with the hand furthest from the machine, ensuring your palm is facing down.
5. While keeping your body stable and core tight, exhale as you lift the handle out to the side and up to shoulder level to form a T shape with your torso.
6. Hold the contraction at the top for a moment, then slowly lower the weight back to the starting position while inhaling.
7. Perform the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides to work the opposite arm.
Ensure to maintain control throughout the exercise, especially while returning to the start position, to prevent injury and optimize muscle engagement. Adjust the weight to match your fitness level, starting with lighter weights if you're new to the movement or increasing it as you progress.
