Instructions
1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart facing the cable machine. Set the cable to the lowest height and attach a handle. Choose an appropriate weight on the stack.
2. Bend your knees slightly and lean forward from your hips, keeping your back straight.
3. Grasp the handle with both hands with a neutral grip (palms facing each other) and extend your arms fully.
4. Engage your core and keep a slight bend in your elbows. This is the starting position.
5. Pull the handle towards your lower abdomen, retracting your shoulder blades and keeping your elbows close to your body.
6. Squeeze your back muscles when you reach the fully contracted position, then hold briefly.
7. Slowly extend your arms back to the starting position while controlling the weight.
8. Repeat the motion for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining proper form throughout the set.
Remember to keep the movement smooth and controlled, focusing on using your back muscles rather than pulling with your arms. Adjust the weight as needed to perform sets with proper form and without compromising technique.
