• This exercise works best with a rope attachment but can be done with anything. The attachment should be set to the bottom of the machine.
    Face away from the cable machine, straddle the cable itself, and grab the attachment. Walk a few steps away.
    Break at the hips while maintaining a flat back and mostly extended knees.
    Push hips forward until you are back in a standing position.
  • Start with a straight bar attachment set to the bottom of the machine. Squat the weight up into a standing position and walk a few steps back.
    Stand with a staggered stance. Push your butt back to initiate the movement and then push your butt forward until you're back in a standing position.
    To protect yourself from injury, always maintain a flat back on any exercise.
  • Use an ankle attachment. Bring a bench over to the cables. The cable should be set to hip height.
    Push your ankle straight back, extending at the hip. Hold for a one count when you feel a contraction in your glutes.
    Then flex at the hips until you are back into your original position.
  • Start with handles set to the bottom of the machine. Grab a box, stand on top of the box, squat the weight up into a standing position.
    Push your butt back to initiate the movement and then push your butt forward until you're back in a standing position.
    To protect yourself from injury, always maintain a flat back on any exercise.
