Technik-Tipps
Your elbows should be close to your sides throughout the exercise. Avoid letting them flare out, as this can lead to improper form and potential injury. The movement should come from your forearms pushing down, not your elbows moving outwards.
To get the most out of the cable pushdown, make sure you're using a full range of motion. This means fully extending your arms at the bottom of the movement and allowing them to return to a 90-degree angle at the top. Avoid partial reps, which can limit your progress and potentially lead to muscle imbalances.
Avoid using momentum to push the cable down
