Technique

How to perform Cable Judo Flip

  1. Attach a rope to the lowest pulley and stand side-on to the machine with a wide stance and both hands on the rope.
  2. Begin with a small turn toward the pulley and enough space for the rope to pass beside your shoulder.
  3. Turn away from the machine as you bring the rope up over your shoulder.
  4. Shift your weight between your feet and continue into a controlled forward crunch, allowing your hips and feet to turn with the movement.
  5. Reverse the sequence under control to the starting stance without letting the weight stack snap back.
  6. Complete the planned repetitions, then reposition and repeat on the other side.
