Welcome to the full guide on how to perform Cable Crossover from Built Fit. Below you will learn how to perfect your form and technique for this exercise. Be sure to read the information on how to start and perform the exercise and then view the images and video to see it in action. Built Fit stresses the importance on perfecting the form of Cable Crossover before you begin adding additional weight.
Starting Position: Stand in the center of the two weight stacks. Grasp the handle from each side and lean forward slightly.
Performing The Exercise: Keep the elbow bent slightly and bring the handles together in front of the body in a smooth, semi-circular motion, until the hands are together. Hold this position for a 2 count and then slowly let the weight back to the starting position and repeat.
Tips: A change in the body position will change the focus of the exercise. An exaggerated forward lean places more emphasis on the upper chest, an upright posture (or slight forward lean) has a more balanced focus, while a slight backward lean puts the stress more on the outer and lower chest.
