Preparation
Sit on platform with knees bent and grasp cable attachment. Straighten lower back and position knees with a slight bend.

Execution
Pull cable attachment to waist. Pull shoulders back and push chest forward during contraction. Return until arms are extended and shoulders are stretched forward. Repeat.

Comments
It is optional to bend the lower back forward during the stretch and pull it upright during contraction. In which case, the Erector Spinae becomes a Synergists muscle.
