I see a lot of guys lunge out and use their body weight as most of the resistance. He didn't point this out in this video, but be sure to have a straight back with your chest sticking up and out!
You forgot to mention maintaining a slight bend in the elbow in order to remove the tension off it, this way you will cause lots of stress on your elbow joint and once you start lifting heavier weights, one day you'll seriously injure yourself on the pullback
For all the ' know-it-alls' commenting... the dude is articulate, being straight forward and diciplined. This vid is for advanced body-builders AND 'dummies' alike.
The 'cross-over' in the name refers to crossing the centerline of the deltoid group, not 'crossing your hands, boneheads.
This IS the correct way of doing cable crossovers. Many of you have no idea of how badly you can injure yourself when doing some of these things incorrectly.
I hate to point it out but this is not how to do cable crossovers...
cable "crossovers" require the hands to cross each other, not simply meeting in the middle. by all means you can do it like this but to maximise muscle gain, cross the arms to form a small X when pulling them through
@epraht8 Its natural to have a slight bend in your elbows, this stops you from putting pressure on the joints. Locking out your elbows in any weight exercise is dangerous!
"Notice I'm not swinging the weights or moving very fast." Yeah, cause you're using twenty pounds on each side. Lets try for something called "Strength Training" next time.
Must have paid someone else to get his CPT license because he has absolutely no clue how to do this movement correctly. Must have watched the "How to NOT to do cable crossovers" too many times. LOL !
Sorry to break it to you livestrong.... But A cable cross over is done just like it sounds you cross the cables over once your hands meet! Please if you want to make instructional videos show the proper full range of motion. Remember while doing a cross over the hands cross over then the chest contracts to the fullest range!

if its called cable crossover, shouldn't you cross your hands instead of bringing them together ? 0.o

Aren't you supposed to bend at the elbows? Seems like this guy's locked straight arms would put a lot of unnecessary stress on the shoulders.
