How to perform the cable shrug
- Stand between a cable machine with a low pulley on each side. Hold the cable handles with an overhand grip, hands at your sides, and let your arms hang straight down. Keeping your arms straight, shrug your shoulders upward as high as you can, engaging your upper traps. Pause briefly at the top, then lower your shoulders back to the starting position and repeat.
