Cable Y raise
Expert Advice
Control the weight throughout the entire movement and avoid using momentum to lift the handles, which can lead to shoulder injury.
How-to-do Steps
- Stand facing the cable machine with the pulleys set to the lowest position.
- Grasp the handles with your palms facing each other and step back into a staggered stance.
- With straight arms, raise the handles diagonally above your head, forming a 'Y' shape.
- Slowly lower the handles back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
