Exercise Profile

Pulley Lunge One Arm Push Overview

The pulley lunge one arm push workout is a targeted exercise that engages the quads, chest, and obliques.

By utilizing the pulley system, this workout provides resistance to primarily focus on these specific muscle groups.

The pulley acts as a stabilizer, allowing for controlled movements that isolate and strengthen the quads, chest, and obliques.

While other muscles may be involved, the pulley’s main role is to enhance the engagement of these primary muscle groups.

Pulley Lunge One Arm Push Instructions

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, facing the pulley machine.
  2. Grasp the handle of the pulley with one hand, palm facing down, and step back to create tension in the cable.
  3. Take a large step forward with your opposite leg, lowering your body into a lunge position.
  4. As you lunge down, simultaneously push the handle of the pulley forward, extending your arm fully.
  5. Keep your chest up, core engaged, and back straight throughout the movement.
  6. Push through your front heel to return to the starting position, while simultaneously pulling the handle back towards your body.
  7. Repeat the lunge and push movement for the desired number of repetitions, then switch sides and repeat with the opposite arm.

Pulley Lunge One Arm Push Tips

  1. Engage your quads by maintaining a strong and stable stance throughout the exercise. Plant your front foot firmly on the ground, ensuring your knee is directly above your ankle, and your back leg is extended behind you, creating a straight line from your head to your back foot.
  2. Focus on your chest muscles by keeping your torso upright and your shoulders back. Imagine squeezing your pectoral muscles together as you push the pulley away from your body, feeling the tension in your chest as you extend your arm fully.
  3. Activate your obliques by twisting your torso slightly towards the side of your extended arm. This rotational movement engages your side abdominal muscles, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the exercise. Visualize your obliques contracting as you push the pulley, creating a powerful and defined waistline.
  4. Breathe deeply and rhythmically throughout the exercise, inhaling as you lower your body into the lunge position, and exhaling as you push the pulley away. This controlled breathing not only provides oxygen to your muscles but also helps you maintain focus and concentration, allowing you to perform the exercise with precision and intensity.
  5. Challenge yourself by gradually increasing the weight resistance on the pulley. As an advanced fitness enthusiast, you have already built a solid foundation of strength and endurance. Push yourself to new limits by progressively adding more weight
