Standing cable chop video?

Dominique O 9 months ago updated by Carl Juneau, PhD 9 months ago 1

I’m new to the standing cable chop exercise. I am wondering about the accompanying video because

1) it doesn’t really illustrate the same movement as the animation, and

2) when I tried to execute as explained in the video, I found that I was mostly working the triceps of the arm closest to the weights.

In comparison, this video shows the movement of the animation. When I tried it, I found that I was activating my abs and not so much my arms. (I chose that video arbitrarily among a myriad similar videos on Youtube.) What gives?

Thank you.

Hi Dominique,

Thanks for reporting that issue. Indeed, you should be doing the variation that engages your abs the most. We're going to review and fix, and someone from the team will be in touch by email.

Best,

Carl
