Starting Position: Position a flat bench directly in front of a cable machine so when you lay down on the bench, your head is right under the bar. Lie on the bench, face up with your head hanging off the front, feet flat on the floor on each side of the bench. You should be perpendicular to the machine, your head closest to it. Grab the bar with an underhand grip, your arms fully extended over your chest.
