Omni cable cross-over
Intermediate10 repsNo jumping
How to do it
- Adjust the weights based on the
- motion. When pulling from top to bottom, increase the weight by 20% to 40%
- more than the bottom-to-top motion. This accounts for the fact that when
- operating from top down, the upper chest muscles are naturally weaker than
- the lower chest muscles. So, adjust your weight stack to
- compensate.
- Position one cable at a high
- setting and the other at the lowest level setting. Get into a staggered
- stance in between the cable towers.
- For the cable set low, pull it
- upward and across your body. This effectively targets the upper chest.
- For the cable set high, draw it
- downward and across your body. This will primarily engage the lower chest.
- Once you’re done, swap the
- positions of the cables. Change the previously high cable to the lowest
- position and vice versa. Repeat the exercise sequence, ensuring you’re
- targeting both chest regions effectively.
