How to do it
- Set a pulley at the lowest position, stand side-on to it and hold the handle in your far hand.
- Let the cable run across the front of your body, with a slight bend in your elbow.
- Raise your arm out to the side until it's about parallel to the floor, leading with your elbow.
- Lower it slowly back across your body, keeping tension on the cable and your torso still.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
