Wood Chop down to up, progression#2, getting scary

Don't be stupid if you are not perfectly comfortable kneeling on the fit-ball already stay away from this move. Once you've taken responsibility for your own safety place your fit-ball alongside the cable machine with a your hips perpendicular to the weight stack and handle in the bottom position. Grasp the handle first with the hand furthest away from the cable then lock the other hand over it. Position the ball far enough away from the stack so that the weight stack is "loaded" throughout the movement. Keeping your arms straight and maintaining impeccable posture and spinal alignment pull the handle diagonally from low to high, coming from outside the knee closest to the cable to outside the opposite shoulder with your arms high, extended through the thoracic spine. Other than that nice high reach there is no flexion and extension in the back.
