Tutorial

  1. 1
    Position the cable pulley on the lowest step and attach a straight bar. Stand with your back to the cable tower. The cable should run between your legs and the bar should be in front of you.
  2. 2
    Hold the bar about shoulder-width apart with an overhand grip (palms facing backwards) in front of your thighs. The arms hang down and the elbow joint is slightly bent.
  3. 3
    Powerfully lift the bar up in front of your body until your arms are parallel to the floor. Your arms remain almost fully extended in front of your body. Hold the position briefly and exhale.
  4. 4
    Slowly lower the bar in a controlled manner until you are back in the starting position. Your hands should be in front of your thighs again. Breathe in as you do so.
  5. 5
    One repetition has now been completed. Repeat this process for the specified number of repetitions.
Tip
Keep your back straight and pull your shoulder blades down. Choose a weight that is not too heavy and concentrate on the execution.
