Adjust the cable machine so that the pulley is at the highest position. Sit facing the machine with your feet flat on the ground and your knees slightly bent. Grasp the cable attachment with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Lean back slightly, keeping your back straight and your chest up. Pull the cable attachment down towards your chest, squeezing your shoulder blades together. Pause for a moment at the bottom of the movement, then slowly release the cable back up to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
