How To Do:
1. Adjust the cable machine so the pulley is as high as it goes and attach the rope
2. Grip the rope with thumbs facing up and pull down until your forearms are parallel with the floor (this is the start of the exercise)
3. Keep your elbows tucked in, and straighten your arms. Your arms should be extended all the way.
