How to perform it
Stand facing a cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold the cable handle with your right hand and step back to create tension in the cable. Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward at the hips, keeping your back straight. Keep your upper arm close to your body and your elbow bent at a 90-degree angle. Extend your forearm backward, straightening your arm fully. Pause for a moment, then slowly return to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides.
