Cable Pull-Through — form guide
Glutes · Hamstrings · Erectors. Equipment: Cable Machine + Rope Attachment. Difficulty: Beginner.
TEMPO
3-0-1-1
Best hip-hinge teaching tool ever invented. The cable pulls you backward, forcing you to drive hips through to stand. Pair with RDLs.
Cues
- Face away from low cable, rope between legs
- Hinge at hips, soft knee bend
- Hams stretch at bottom
- Drive hips forward to stand, squeeze glutes hard
Common mistakes
- Squatting it — knees bending too much
- Using arms to lift the rope
Injury notes
Spine-friendly hinge teach. Mandatory before barbell RDLs for beginners.
Progression
Add 2.5–5kg/stack when 12 strict reps land with a clean glute squeeze.
