How to perform it
Stand facing the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart. Bend at the hips and knees, lowering your torso until your back is parallel to the ground. Grasp the cable handles with an overhand grip, keeping your arms straight and your shoulders back. Engage your glutes and hamstrings to lift the cable handles, extending your hips and standing up straight. Pause for a moment at the top, then slowly lower the cable handles back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
