Stand straight with a slight bend in your knees, and keep your feet shoulder-width apart for stability.

Pro Tip
**Right Weight Selection**: Choose a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form. Using weights that are too heavy can lead to improper form and increase the risk of injury. Start with lighter weights and gradually increase as your strength improves. **Controlled Movement**: The key to this exercise is to perform it in a slow and controlled manner. Avoid jerking or using momentum to pull the cables. This not only reduces the effectiveness of the exercise but also increases the risk of injury. **Proper Hand Position**: When holding the handles, your palms should be facing forward. Avoid twisting your wrists or gripping the handles too tightly as this can lead to wrist strain. **Range of Motion**: Make sure to fully extend your arms out
