How to perform

Set the cable machine to a high pulley and attach a handle. Stand sideways to the machine, feet shoulder-width apart, grasping the handle with both hands. Engage your core and slightly bend your knees. Pull the handle down across your body, rotating your torso. Continue until your hands are near your opposite hip. Slowly return to the starting position, controlling the movement. Repeat for the desired reps, alternating sides.
