How to perform it

Stand facing the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold the cable handle with both hands and position it at waist height. Engage your core and maintain a straight back throughout the exercise. Keeping your arms straight, exhale and lift the cable handle up towards your opposite shoulder, rotating your torso. Pause for a moment at the top, then inhale and slowly lower the cable handle back to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides.
