Instructions
1. Begin by setting up a cable machine with the pulley at the lowest possible height. Attach a handle to the cable.
2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, facing perpendicular to the cable machine, so the machine is to your side.
3. Bend at the hips and knees to get into a half-squat position and reach down with the hand closest to the machine to grab the handle, keeping your back straight and core engaged.
4. Pull the handle upwards and across your body in a diagonal fashion, rotating your torso and pivoting on your feet as necessary while keeping your arm extended.
5. Draw the handle up until you are fully upright, with the arm across your body at shoulder height, then rotate back as you lower the handle to return to the starting position.
6. Perform the desired number of repetitions before switching sides and repeating the exercise with your other arm.
Ensure you perform the movement with a smooth, controlled motion and adjust the weight as needed to match your fitness level, maintaining good form throughout the exercise to prevent injury.
