This is a compound exercise (involving two or more joint movements) that works different muscles. It targets the chest, back, biceps, triceps, shoulders and core.

Set the cable height at chest level. Grab a cable handle in each hand and turn toward one of the cable stacks. Prepare to pull from the side you are facing and push from the opposite side.

Exhale and push/pull both handles simultaneously. Repeat 10-15 times, then switch sides and repeat for three sets.

Key points: Keep your back straight and core engaged throughout the movement.
