Single-arm cable pullover is a progression of Cable Pullover. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Short range: Short range means the target muscle finishes squeezed in its shortened position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The cable keeps tension as the upper arms travel down and back. With the elbows nearly fixed, the lats have to finish shoulder extension instead of handing the work to an elbow bend.
