How to perform it
- Adjust the cable to the same height as your elbow. Stand with your left side to the band a couple of feet away.
- Grasp the handle with your right hand, and keep your elbow pressed firmly to your side. We recommend you hold a pad or foam roll in place with your elbow to keep it firmly in position.
- With your upper arm in position, your elbow should be flexed to 90 degrees with your hand reaching across the front of your torso. This will be your starting position.
- Execute the movement by rotating your arm in a backhand motion, keeping your elbow in place.

Make it count toward your goal
Random sets rarely move the needle. In NYUS, the External Rotation with Cable 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.
