Cable Crossover
From the high pulleys, bring the handles down and together in front of you, squeezing the chest.
How to do it
Setup
Handles on the high pulleys, one step forward in a stagger, arms wide with soft elbows.
Steps
- Sweep the handles down and together in front of the hips.
- Cross slightly and squeeze the chest for a beat.
- Return wide with control, opening the chest.
Common mistakes
Turning it into a press: the soft elbow angle never changes. Hunching forward: chest stays proud; the arms do the arc. Racing the return: the stretch back is half the rep.
Breathing
Exhale on the squeeze, inhale opening.
