  • Feet braced, chest against the pad.

The movement

  1. 1Sit with your chest against the pad and grip the handles.
  2. 2Pull the handles toward your ribs, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
  3. 3Return slowly until your arms are straight and your shoulder blades spread.

No history for this one yet. Start lighter than you think you need — you should finish every set feeling like you had four or five more reps in you. You can always add weight next session; a strain costs you weeks.

Set the pin low for your first set and add from there. Nothing is lost by starting too light on day one.
