How to do it
- Attach a single handle to the low pulley and stand side-on to the machine.
- Reach across your body with the far hand to hold the handle, and hold the machine with your other hand.
- Lift the handle out to the side until your arm is about shoulder height.
- Lower slowly, finish your reps, then do the same on the other side.
Do all reps on one side, then switch.
Beginner tip: Work one side at a time and keep your body still as you lift.
