Step-by-step
- Set the pulley to the high position, grip the handle with both hands, and stand side-on to the machine.
- Set your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and arms extended.
- Rotate your torso to pull the handle diagonally down toward your opposite hip.
- Generate the movement from your abs and torso rotation, not your arms.
- Return to the starting position under control and switch sides at the end of the set.
Coaching tip
Rotate from the hips and pull your arms down diagonally; work the obliques.
