How to do it
- Attach a V-bar to the top pulley, adjust the knee pad to hold your thighs and pick a weight.
- Hold the handle with palms facing each other, sit down and lean back slightly with your chest up.
- Pull the handle down until it nearly touches your chest, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
- Let the handle rise slowly until your arms are straight again.
Beginner tip: Keep your upper body still and let your arms and back do the pulling.
