FitCi
Step-by-step
- Set the cable to the lowest position and stand sideways to the machine
- Grab the handle with both hands and take a low stance with knees bent
- Rotate your torso to carry the handle diagonally up over your opposite shoulder
- Let your eyes and chest follow the handle
- Return down along the same path under control; finish the reps, then switch sides
Coaching tip
The reverse of the woodchopper; power flows low-to-high through torso rotation, the arms just carry.
Caution
Skip this move or ask a professional first if you have pain or an injury in: lower back, shoulder. FitCi filters it out of your program automatically based on the injuries in your profile.
