How to do the Cable Judo Flip
- 1
Connect a rope attachment to a tower, and move the cable to the lowest pulley position. Stand with your side to the cable with a wide stance, and grab the rope with both hands.
- 2
Twist your body away from the pulley as you bring the rope over your shoulder like you're performing a judo flip.
- 3
Shift your weight between your feet as you twist and crunch forward, pulling the cable downward.
- 4
Return to the starting position and repeat until failure.
- 5
Then, reposition and repeat the same series of movements on the opposite side.
Log it, see it on your body.
