Instructions

1. Attach a single handle to a low pulley on the cable machine.

2. Stand facing the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart.

3. Bend at the hips slightly and keep a small bend in your knees, maintaining a straight back.

4. Grasp the handle with one hand in a neutral (palm facing in) or pronated (palm facing down) grip.

5. Engage your core to stabilize your body during the exercise.

6. Begin the movement by retracting the shoulder blade of the working arm, keeping your arm fairly straight.

7. Continue to pull the handle towards your hip while keeping your elbow close to your body, focusing on the muscles on the side of your back contracting.

8. Squeeze your back muscles at the top of the movement.

9. Slowly allow the cable to return to the starting position, focusing on a controlled movement and stretching the muscles engaged.

10. Complete the desired number of repetitions before switching to the other arm.

11. Perform the exercise for the recommended amount of sets.

Ensure you maintain proper form throughout the exercise to prevent injury and maximize the benefits for the targeted muscles. If you're unsure about your form, consult with a fitness professional.
