A resistance machine that transfers weight through adjustable pulleys and cables.
Why Cable machine matters
Cables allow resistance from many angles and can keep useful tension through movements that are awkward with free weights.
A practical example
Setting a pulley around chest height for a standing cable fly.
Common mistake
Standing too far from the stack or allowing the cable to pull the body out of position.
Keep the context in mind.
Training and nutrition terms describe general principles. The right exercise, intensity or food target still depends on your experience, health, goals and schedule.
Personalised coaching
Apply the principle to your own training.
A definition is useful, but your programme still needs to match your experience, schedule, recovery and goals.
