Stand in front of the cable apparatus roughly two feet in front of the weight stack. Grab the cable handle and bend your knees slightly and get your back into a vertical position. You will need to brace yourself with your other hand by putting your palm on your upper thigh. This is your starting position.
Pull the weight in toward your mid-section line all the way until the handle almost touches the side of your body. Keep your elbows tucked in as close to your body as you can. Then, release the weight back to the starting position and repeat the entire movement for the desired or prescribed number of repetitions.
Finally, perform the same movement with other side.

Don't allow the weight to jerk your arm back as this may result in shoulder or lower back injury
SPECIAL NOTES & LEVEL of DIFFICULTY VARIATIONS
