How to do it

  1. 01

    To move into the starting position, place the pulleys at the low position, select the resistance to be used and grasp a handle in each hand.

  2. 02

    Step forward, gaining tension in the pulleys. Your palms should be facing forward, hands below the waist, and your arms straight. This will be your starting position.

  3. 03

    With a slight bend in your arms, draw your hands upward and toward the midline of your body. Your hands should come together in front of your chest, palms facing up.

  4. 04

    Return your arms back to the starting position after a brief pause.

In the app

Low Cable Crossover appears when you own a cable stack and the day's window has room for it. Loads come from Rule 3 (Loads rise when earned, read from RPE, graded strong) and climb on the reps you actually did.

If a machine is taken the engine swaps a same-pattern movement and says why.

If you don't have a cable stack

Same movement pattern, same primary muscles — swap by what you have.
