How to do it
- Adjust the seat so your shoulders line up with the machine's pivot points.
- Sit tall with your arms against the pads or holding the handles, elbows slightly bent.
- Raise your arms out to the sides until they're about parallel to the floor.
- Lower slowly with your shoulders down, without letting the weight stack touch down between reps.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
