Proper Form

1. Push the machine handle up and forward while slowly extending your arms.

2. Raise it until your arms are almost straight and the handle gets close to your chest, then pause for a moment.

3. Slowly bend your elbows and gently lower the handle back to the starting position.

4. Control the movement so that both arms move at the same speed and repeat.

Breathing Technique
