- Assume athletic stance in front of Free Motion or cable crossover machine, with both handles set at low position
- Hold handles in front with straight arms, so there is tension in cables
- Without rocking or changing position of torso, pull handles to chest by driving elbows back and squeezing shoulder blades together
- Return handles to start position with control; repeat for specified reps
Sets/Reps: 1x12, 2x8
Benefits: Isolated upper back and core strength
Tenney: Using the Free Motion helps us isolate each side. These guys are so one-side-dominant that I like to make sure they work each side separately. Keep your core tight to activate the core stabilizers.
