The Best Cable Machine Exercises
Filter by Equipment
Cable Machine with Rope Attachment
A unilateral isolation movement that focuses on correcting triceps imbalances and allows for a greater mind-muscle connection.
View more
Targets the obliques. The cable provides constant lateral resistance, strengthening the abdominal wall and improving spinal stability.
View more
A triceps isolation movement that emphasizes the long head by placing it in a stretched position. The cable provides constant tension throughout.
View more
A unilateral shoulder isolation that allows for better focus and fixes muscle imbalances. The cable provides high-tension work for the medial deltoid.
View more
A chest isolation exercise targeting the lower pectoralis major. The unilateral cable setup allows for better focus and increased range of motion.
View more
Targets the lats and rhomboids with a neutral grip, which is often more comfortable for the shoulders and allows for heavy loading.
View more
A back-building movement that increases the range of motion. Elevating the feet or body allows for a deeper stretch in the latissimus dorsi.
View more
A compound exercise for the deltoids and traps. The cable allows for a safer, more fluid movement path compared to a barbell.
View more
A row variation using an underhand (supinated) grip. This targets the lower lats more effectively and increases the involvement of the biceps.
View more
An isolation movement for the triceps using a supinated grip to maximize the mind-muscle connection with the medial and lateral heads.
View more
Targets the brachialis and brachioradialis (forearms). The overhand grip increases the demand on the forearm extensors and bicep height.
View more
A variation targeting the upper back and posterior deltoids. Note: Should be performed with caution to avoid shoulder impingement.
