How to perform Cable Iron Cross

1

Begin by moving the pulleys to the high position, select the resistance to be used, and take a handle in each hand.

2

Stand directly between both pulleys with your arms extended out to your sides. Your head and chest should be up while your arms form a "T". This will be your starting position.

3

Keeping the elbows extended, pull your arms straight to your sides.

4

Return your arms back to the starting position after a pause at the peak contraction.

5

Continue the movement for the prescribed number of repetitions.
