This is an effective exercise that targets the shoulder muscles and offers several benefits for individuals looking to improve their upper body strength and stability.
First, place the cable pulley as low as possible, then grab the handle in one hand and position yourself facing perpendicular from the pulley. Then have your elbows tucked in at your sides with hands at shoulder height with your palms facing forward.
This is the starting position.
From here extend your hand up above your head until the arm is fully extended or as far as you can. After this, slowly return the arm to the starting position. This is one repetition, now repeat this for the desired amount. Once you’ve done all the reps on one arm, if required in the program and you are able to do so, repeat the exercise and the repetitions with the other arm.
If you have limited gripping ability try using the Active Hands Gripping aids or D-Ring Aids clipped straight into the carabiner to make this exercise as safe as possible.
