Mostly for: back, shoulders, triceps

  • Abs · Intermediate

    Cable Horizontal Pallof Press

    A standing anti-rotation core exercise performed with a cable set at chest height. It develops the obliques and trunk stability by resisting rotational force.

  • Chest · Intermediate

    One-Arm Low-to-High Cable Fly

    An isolation exercise targeting the pectoral muscles, particularly the upper chest.

  • Abs · Beginner

    Seated Ab Cable Crunch

    An isolation exercise targeting the rectus abdominis. It involves using a cable machine to provide resistance, allowing for a controlled and effective abdominal contraction. This exercise helps in building core strength and definition.

  • Back · Beginner

    Straight-Arm Lat Pulldown

    The Straight Arm Pulldown is an isolation exercise targeting the latissimus dorsi muscles. It involves pulling a cable bar down with straight arms, focusing on the back muscles without engaging the biceps. This exercise helps in developing a wider back and improving upper body strength.

  • Back · Intermediate

    Cable Seated Supine Grip Row

    A seated cable row performed with an underhand grip. It develops the lats, rhomboids, trapezius, and biceps with a distinct palm-up hand position.

  • Back · Intermediate

    Seated Cable Low Row Neutral Grip

    The Cable Low Seated Row Close Bar is a compound exercise targeting the muscles of the back, specifically the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, and trapezius.

  • Forearms · Intermediate

    Reverse Grip Cable Curl

    An isolation exercise targeting the brachialis and brachioradialis muscles, with secondary emphasis on the biceps brachii.

  • Triceps · Beginner

    Triceps Cable Kickback

    The Tricep Cable Kickback is an isolation exercise targeting the triceps brachii muscle. It involves extending the arm behind the body using a cable machine, which provides constant tension throughout the movement. This exercise helps in building muscle definition and strength in the triceps.

  • Chest · Beginner

    Seated Cable Chest Press

    A bilateral pressing exercise performed on an upright bench between two cable pulleys. It combines shoulder movement and elbow extension to train the chest with assistance from the triceps and front deltoids.

  • Shoulders · Beginner

    Cable Leaning Lateral Raise

    A leaning cable variation of the lateral raise for the lateral deltoids. The body angle changes the line of resistance compared with an upright cable lateral raise.

  • Back · Intermediate

    One-Arm Cable Row

    The Single Arm Chest Supported Row Cable is an isolation exercise targeting the upper back muscles, particularly the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, and trapezius.

  • Shoulders · Beginner

    Cable Seated Rear Lateral Raise

    A seated cable isolation exercise for the rear deltoids. Cable resistance maintains tension while the seated position limits momentum from the lower body.

  • Back · Intermediate

    Cable Seated Row Neutral Grip

    A compound exercise that targets the muscles of the upper back, including the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, and trapezius.

  • Biceps · Intermediate

    One-Arm Hammer Cable Curl

    The One Arm Hammer Cable Curl is an isolation exercise targeting the biceps brachii, with emphasis on the brachialis and brachioradialis muscles. This exercise utilizes a cable machine to maintain constant tension throughout the movement, promoting muscle growth and strength in the upper arm.

  • Abs · Beginner

    Standing Cable Ab Crunch

    An isolation exercise targeting the abdominal muscles, specifically the rectus abdominis. It involves using a cable machine to provide resistance, allowing for controlled and effective engagement of the core muscles.

  • Back · Intermediate

    Cable Reverse Grip Pulldown

    A vertical cable pull performed with an underhand grip. It trains the lats, biceps, and forearms while providing a distinct grip variation from an overhand pulldown.

  • Shoulders · Beginner

    Cable Lateral Raise

    An isolation shoulder exercise that targets the lateral deltoids with cable resistance. The cable maintains consistent loading through the side-raising pattern.

  • Triceps · Beginner

    Cable Triceps Pushdown

    An isolation exercise targeting the triceps brachii, primarily focusing on the lateral and long heads.

  • Triceps · Beginner

    Overhead Cable Triceps Exstension (bar)

    The Overhead Cable Triceps Extension (bar) is an isolation exercise targeting the triceps brachii.

  • Legs · Beginner

    Single-Leg Cable Leg Curl

    An isolation exercise targeting the hamstrings. It involves using a cable machine to perform leg curls one leg at a time, allowing for focused muscle engagement and improved muscle balance between legs.

  • Biceps · Intermediate

    Bayesian Cable Curl (Face Away)

    An isolation exercise targeting the biceps brachii. It involves using a cable machine with the pulley set at a low position. This exercise emphasizes the stretch and contraction of the biceps by maintaining tension throughout the movement, making it effective for hypertrophy.

  • Back · Beginner

    Lat Pulldown Machine

    Designed to target the latissimus dorsi muscles in the back, along with secondary engagement of the biceps, shoulders, and upper back. It is a seated exercise where you pull a bar down towards your chest, simulating a pull-up motion.

  • Shoulders · Intermediate

    Cable Incline Y Raise Back Supported

    An isolation exercise targeting the upper back and shoulders, specifically the rear deltoids, trapezius, and rhomboids. This exercise is performed on an incline bench with cables, allowing for a controlled range of motion and constant tension on the muscles.

  • Biceps · Intermediate

    Incline Cable Curl

    An isolation exercise targeting the biceps brachii, performed using a cable machine with an incline bench. This exercise emphasizes the stretch at the bottom of the movement, providing constant tension throughout the range of motion.
