The cable pull through is a lower-body exercise primarily targeting the gluteal muscles. It engages the posterior chain, helping improve hip extension and stability. This movement is useful for enhancing strength and power, particularly in sports that require explosive leg drive.

How to do it

  1. Stand facing away from the cable machine with feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Bend at the hips, keeping your back straight, and grip the rope attachment between your legs.
  3. Drive your hips forward to stand up straight, squeezing your glutes at the top.
  4. Control the movement as you return to the starting position, repeating for the desired reps.
