How to do it

  1. Set the seat so the handles start level with your lower chest, then pick a weight.
  2. Sit with your back against the pad, chest up and shoulder blades gently pulled back.
  3. Press the handles forward and slightly down until your arms are almost straight.
  4. Slowly bring the handles back near the start position.

Beginner tip: Keep your chest lifted and stop just before your elbows lock.
