Instructions
Preparation
- Stand between two high pulleys. Grasp cable stirrups from each side. position elbows high out to sides. Angle forearms downward with hands elbow width. Step forward with feet side by side as shown or in lunging posture (one foot in front and other foot behind). Lean forward with hips and knees bend slightly
Execution
- Push stirrups at forward/downward angle away from body until arms are straight and parallel to one another. Return stirrups to original position until slight stretch is felt in chest or shoulders. Repeat.
Comments
- Stirrup should follow slight arch pattern as hands travel closer together toward extension. Cable pulleys should be closer together than what is typically found on standard cable cross over setup.
