How to do it

  1. Set a pulley at the lowest position and attach a straight bar, rope or single handle.
  2. Stand with your back to the machine and the cable between your legs, holding the attachment at your thighs.
  3. Raise it straight in front of you to shoulder height with a slight bend in your elbows.
  4. Lower it slowly, keeping your torso still and the cable under tension.

Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
