Lawn Mower Cable Pull | Thrive Personal Training

Instructions

This exercise is great if you need to work on shoulder/scapula stability. Using a single hand attachment, place the cable at the lowest point on the machine. Pull on the cable so that the weight is slightly off the weight stack.

Stand facing the cable machine with the arm holding the cable out in front, feeling a stretch in your shoulder, and that same leg back behind you. Have the opposite leg in front for stabilisation. From this position, pull the cable up and back, leading with your elbow until you feel a contraction around your shoulder blades. Bring the weight back to the starting position and repeat.

Tip

When working on shoulder stability look to use lighter weight, but increase the amount of reps performed.
