Stability Cable Chop - 1/2 Kneeling, Straight Bar

Description

Starting Position: Attach one end of a straight bar to a high pulley cable. With one side of the body facing the cable, hold the rope with the arms straight overhead toward the attachment in a half-kneeling position.

Procedure: Pull the bar diagonally down to the center of the chest, then press the hands diagonally down and away across the body. Reverse the movement back to the starting position. Complete the set on one side before repeating on the other side.

Coaching Key: Drive your feet through the ground to stabilize the upper body and resist excessive torso rotation.

Feel It: Working the entire body.
