    How to: Cable Standing Jab

    1. Attach the cable to the low pulley on the machine.
    2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the cable handle with both hands, elbows bent.
    3. Engage your core and twist your torso slightly as you extend your arms in a jabbing motion.
    4. Return to the starting position in a controlled manner.
    5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

    Common Mistakes

    • Arching the back during the jab.
    • Not engaging the core.
    • Using momentum instead of controlled movements.

    Modifications

    • Perform the jab with lighter resistance if new to the exercise.
    • Limit the range of motion to reduce strain on the shoulders.

    Tips

    • Maintain a strong core throughout the movement.
    • Use controlled movements rather than swinging the cable.
    • Focus on form to maximize the effectiveness of the jab.
