Cable Kneeling Military Press
The military press from tall kneeling with a long bar clipped to two cables; with the legs out of it, any lean back shows at once.
How to do it
Setup
Kneeling tall at a cable tower, a long bar clipped at each end to a low cable and held at the collarbones, glutes squeezed.
Steps
- Press the bar overhead until the arms lock.
- Keep the hips stacked over the knees and the ribs down.
- Lower to the collarbones against both cables' pull.
Common mistakes
Sitting back toward the heels: hips stay over the knees, glutes tight. Arching the lower back to finish: ribs down and a lighter stack. One end of the bar rising first: press it level, both cables even.
Breathing
Exhale pressing, inhale lowering.
