GLUTES

Cable Pull Through

BeginnerCable

The cable pull through trains the hip hinge and glute drive against constant cable tension. It resembles a slower, more controlled kettlebell swing and is excellent for learning to move your hips rather than your arms. It builds strength across the posterior chain, especially the glutes and hamstrings.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Set a pulley to its lowest point with a rope attachment.

  2. 2

    Face away from the machine, reach between your legs, and grab the rope ends with palms facing in.

  3. 3

    Step forward a foot or two to create tension and set your feet wider than shoulder-width.

  4. 4

    Brace your core and hinge your hips back with knees slightly bent, keeping your spine neutral.

  5. 5

    Hinge until you can't keep a neutral back any further.

  6. 6

    Drive your hips forward and squeeze your glutes to return upright, letting your hips move the weight rather than your arms.
