Starting position:
In a standing position with a neutral spine, knees slightly bent (stance may vary), facing away from the pulley and the pully attached hip level or below handles in hand, at chest level, wrist close to body, elbows back, and slightly below the shoulders.
Movement:
Maintaining a neutral spine throughout the movement. Depress the shoulder down away from the ears to activate the lats, press the handle up and out in front of the body. The forearm should parallel the pulley cable. With a controlled motion return back up to the starting position.
Notes: Hand position may vary, palms facing slightly in, or rotating. The arm should stay very close to the cable, but not create pressure on the arm.
