How to do it
- Attach a cable handle to a low pulley and stand sideways to the machine.
- Grasp the handle with the hand furthest from the machine and place your other hand on your hip.
- Keep your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
- With your abs engaged, bend sideways at the waist, bringing your elbow down towards your hip.
- Pause for a moment at the bottom, then slowly return to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides.
