1. Attach a parallel grip handle to the pulley on the cable machine and set the appropriate weight.
2. Sit down on the floor directly under the pulley with your legs extended forward and your spine straight.
3. Grasp the handles with a neutral grip (palms facing each other) and fully extend your arms upward.
4. Brace your core and slightly lean back to create a stable position.
5. Pull the handles down to your upper chest area while keeping your elbows close to your body. Squeeze your shoulder blades together as you pull.
6. Slowly extend your arms back to the starting position, controlling the weight as you return to full extension.
7. Repeat for the desired number of reps and sets, ensuring you maintain proper form throughout the exercise.
8. Make sure to keep your spine neutral and avoid swinging or using momentum to lift the weight.
