Instructions
1. Start by setting the pulleys on a dual-cable machine to the low setting and select the appropriate weight. Attach a handle to each pulley.
2. Stand in the middle of the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart, keeping a slight bend in your knees for stability.
3. Grasp the left handle with your right hand and the right handle with your left hand. Your arms should cross in front of you, with palms facing each other.
4. Keep a slight bend in your elbows and brace your core.
5. Without swinging or using momentum, exhale and lift your arms out to the sides in a controlled manner, until they are parallel to the floor.
6. Your body should form a T-shape with your arms extended out to the sides.
7. Pause at the top of the movement for a brief moment to feel the contraction in your deltoid muscles.
8. Inhale and slowly lower your arms back to the starting position under control.
9. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Tips:
- Keep your movements controlled and avoid jerky motions.
- Do not use excessive weight that compromises your form.
- Your torso should remain stationary throughout the exercise; avoid leaning or swinging to lift the weight.
