Start with a wide, athletic stance with the cable handle facing the
low anchor point. The arms are extended high and to the right.
Rotate 90 degrees, turning the hips, shoulders, and back foot
down and to the left while keeping the eyes on the anchor point.
Repeat the movement in the opposite direction. This exercise is
great for throwers, as it uses eccentric loading.

CONCLUSION
Incorporating exercises that encompass pushing, pulling, and
rotation in multiple planes of motion while on ones feet may
benefit athletic performance in sports that require movements
from a standing position. This will increase the carryover of having
everything in line, and firing the right muscles at the right time.
The recommended exercises will increase specificity in exercises
performed by the athletes, which may translate directly to the field
or court.
