How to perform it

  1. Connect a rope attachment to a tower, and move the cable to the lowest pulley position. Stand with your side to the cable with a wide stance, and grab the rope with both hands.
  2. Twist your body away from the pulley as you bring the rope over your shoulder like you're performing a judo flip.
  3. Shift your weight between your feet as you twist and crunch forward, pulling the cable downward.
  4. Return to the starting position and repeat until failure.
  5. Then, reposition and repeat the same series of movements on the opposite side.

Make it count toward your goal

Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the Cable Judo Flip slots into a plan built for your goal — sets and reps set in the plan, logged in two taps, and folded into a weekly check-in that adjusts your calories, macros and step goal.
