Exercise Description

The tall kneeling cable lift builds core strength while forcing your abs to work against rotation. It teaches your core to stay stable while your arms move.

How To

1. Set up a cable machine with the pulley at chest height and attach a rope handle 2. Get into a tall kneeling position about arm's length from the machine, knees hip-width apart 3. Grab the rope with both hands and pull it to your chest while keeping your torso straight 4. Focus on using your lats to pull while your core fights to keep you from rotating toward the cable 5. Slowly return to start position and repeat for reps, keeping tension on the tall kneeling cable lift throughout

Form Tips

• Keep your hips pushed forward and core braced tight during the entire tall kneeling cable lift • Pull with your lats, not your arms - think about pulling your elbows back • Don't let your torso rotate toward the cable machine • Keep your shoulders down and back throughout the movement

Common Mistakes

• Letting your hips sag back instead of staying in a strong kneeling position during the tall kneeling cable lift • Using too much weight and letting the cable pull you off balance • Rotating your torso toward the cable instead of keeping your core stable during the tall kneeling cable lift
