Again a superclip from Gray Cook. Every time I let a student try one of his exercises they are always surprised about the difficulty and the results later in the swing. Gray: I am your biggest fan! Go on like this! Signed Arthur Schagen LLM, TPI Golf Fitness Instructor and PGA-professional.

The ratio means number of sets, not reps. 4:2 would mean 4 sets on one side and 2 sets on the other side. Same with 3:1. The number of reps is variable.

The chop is moving from a high position to a low position diagonally across your body, while the lift is moving in the opposite direction diagonally across. Biomechanically, the patterns may appear the same but the pattern during the pattern is different because the lift requires you to go against gravity. Regardless, both patterns addresses the left and right asymmetries that most people have. Practice it for a week or two everyday, and explore and appreciate the pattern. You earn it.

Hi, I'm totally confused! Are you saying that Chop/Reverse Chop and Lift/Reverse Lift are the same?

I bet there is 200lbs on that cable.

When you say 4:2, or 3:1 ratio, sets to reps.. You mean 4 sets of 2 reps? Or 3 sets of 1 rep? That doesn't seem like much.

It is better in either kneeling position because it forces your core to engage first. In a standing position, your hips will join in and that is not what you want out of this exercise.
