Step 1

Connect the handle attachments and set the cable pulley to hip height. Place an incline bench in the centre between the two cable pulleys, facing outwards, so that the back of the bench is slightly forward of the poles. Sit on the bench with feet shoulder-width apart. Grasp the left cable with your left hand and the right cable with your right hand in a neutral grip (palms facing inwards). Extend your arms directly in front of your chest with your hands touching, ensuring that the cables are running over your shoulders rather than under. This is your starting position.

Step 2

Inhale. While maintaining a slight bend in your elbows, open your arms outwards and backwards until they are in line with your chest.

Step 3

Exhale. Using the muscles in your chest, pull the handles forward to return to the starting position. Repeat for the specified number of repetitions.
