Instructions
1. Adjust the seat height of the machine so that when you sit down, the handles are at chest level.
2. Sit on the machine with your back resting against the pad and grasp the handles with your palms facing inward.
3. Press your feet firmly against the floor or footrest, and ensure your back remains flat against the pad throughout the exercise.
4. Push down on the handles by extending your elbows until your arms are almost fully extended.
5. Pause at the bottom of the motion for a second.
6. Slowly return to the starting position with controlled movement, allowing your elbows to bend and the handles to come back to chest level.
7. Repeat the motion for the desired number of repetitions.
8. Ensure that you use a weight that allows you to maintain proper form throughout each set.
Always maintain control of the movement, avoid locking out the elbows harshly, and keep the movement smooth to minimize the risk of injury. Adjust the weight based on your strength and fitness level. Make sure to breathe out while pushing down and breathe in as you return to the starting position.
