How to do it
- Set both pulleys at about shoulder height and stand centered between them.
- Cross your arms to grab the left cable with your right hand and the right cable with your left.
- Step back, then sweep your arms out in a wide arc until they're in line with your body, without pinching your shoulder blades together.
- Return slowly to the crossed position, keeping your elbows slightly bent and your torso still.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
