How to do it

  1. Stand facing the machine with feet shoulder-width apart and grip a handle in each hand.
  2. Reach up so your arms are extended overhead, with a slight hip hinge and soft knees.
  3. Pull both handles down forcefully using your lats and core, bending your knees slightly as you drive down.
  4. Finish the pull with your hands near your hips and your torso bent forward.
  5. Let the handles return upward under control as you reset your stance.
  6. Repeat the pull-and-reset cycle for the target time or distance.
