    I didn’t know about these and I started doing them as a variation of wood choppers (hi to lo etc) a few weeks ago and a trainer at my gym was thinking it was strange. Thx u for the confirmation and instruction. These are great!

  • @iamtrillahd
    @iamtrillahd ปีที่แล้ว +15

    I find this more effect if you step back while doing them - so the cable doesn't come across your body but is more so in front of you the whole time. It really hits my obliques

    Great videos guys!
    Can I ask, there is a dumbbell or no cable version for this exercise? In my gym there isn't a "mid height" cable (there's a high cable, or low cable). Or other oblique exercise that could be easily loaded with resistance? Thanks guys anyways! Keep up the good videos :)

    Hi, would you recommend doing these on every height of the cable machine to target different areas of the midsection? Also, if you stand facing the opposite side of the machine, would this target the back? Finally, I was told this exercise is not good for women as it will build the mid section, do you agree?

  • @VishalRaoOnYouTube
    @VishalRaoOnYouTube 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Based on the orientation of the fibers of the obliques, you'll probably get more activation of the muscle and stronger contraction, if the hands started above your head. Take a look at this anatomy video: th-cam.com/video/tXa4U5oztsg/w-d-xo.html

      Do it like you are doing the swing to hit a golf ball, or the swing when you try to make a hit in baseball. Arms in the same position, the only part that moves is your torso and maybe your legs or ankles a bit to complete the swing. Try that approach and you will feel it much less in your arms and shoulders.

  • @welshdragon2008
    @welshdragon2008 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    The biggest problem with this exercise is that the arms and shoulders take over. Leaving nothing being done to the obliques.

    • @MindPumpTV
      @MindPumpTV  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      welshdragon2008 That's why it's so important to rotate at the body. Also consider that it's beneficial to connect the arms and shoulders with rotation..especially for sports.

    • @welshdragon2008
      @welshdragon2008 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for your comment!
      I think your point is the point im making : ))
      Its Not easy to connect the arms and shoulders with the rotation. I personally find myself leading, with my arms (and shoulders) in order to pull the weight. As apposed to moving the weight with my body (torso).

    • @plastikauschina918

    • @stephaniepettersen7064
      @stephaniepettersen7064 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Stationery feet is not for the average joe tho, a lot more torsion through the spine, for some one with a weaker musculature or someone with lower back pain will be better pivoting on the foot, in the end we are all athletes. Is not just an athletic move by doing this way is basic human movement

  • @BC-gs1nm
    @BC-gs1nm 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    what concerns me about these is the twisting. after a low back surgery 15 years ago, doctors and PTs all said never twist doing anything. Maybe people with no low back issues or you folks in your 20s are ok but this seems risky to me.

    • @fuckjewtube69
      @fuckjewtube69 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      When doctors tell you not to do stuff like that its mostly nonesense. You want to strengthen the muscles to "hold" your bones in better. What good is it gonna do you if you have back problems to let your back muscles get weak think about it.
