Steps

1. 1. Attach a flat shoulder width bar to the lowest cable pulley. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Keep your abs tight and a slight bend in your knees to protect your lower back. Starting with the bar at waist height, raise your shoulders toward your ears as if you're saying,"I don't know." Hold briefly at the top of the contraction then lower in a slow and controlled manner.
