STRICT FORM ... FEEL THE MUSCLE
[ ** BACK TO EXERCISE PAGE ** ]

< CABLE CROSSOVERS >

Start Position: Stand between the two cable weight stacks, back slightly arched, and grasp a pulley in each hand. I like to put one foot slightly in front of the other for balance. Don't lean forward much--remain upright.

MidPoint: Keeping shoulders back and chest out, bring the cables together in front of your ribcage, visualizing your arms as just hooks. Squeeze your pecs for a moment.

Finish Position: Return to the starting position. 10-12 reps in a controlled, continuous motion for each set. You can also bring the cables together in front of your chest or slightly above your shoulders. This places different stress on your chest muscles.
