pressure on the chest pad. With a controlled motion, draw back the arms until the elbow
joint is less than 90 degrees (two seconds). Return the handles to the start position
without letting the resistance rest on the stack (two seconds). Repeat while maintaining
proper body positioning.
6. A repetition is counted when you go from the arms extended position, pull the handles
towards your chest, and return the handles back to the arms extended position.
9. Do as many repetitions as you can and record the weight and repetitions below.
