Sit down on the machine and adjust the front chest pad so that it allows your arm to get a nice extension (stretch) when grabbing a hold of the handle bar. Once you grab the bar your arm should be roughly parallel to the floor. This is your starting position.
Pull the weight toward yourself with one arm and focus on keeping balance with your other hand (by holding onto the rest pad). Keep your shoulders square while pulling the weight in. Pull all the way until your arm is just a few inches away from your chest line. Then, release the weight back to the original starting position.
Repeat entire movement for the desired or prescribed number of repetitions.
