# Ski Ergometer Cross Country Ski Basic Pull

Stand in front of the ski ergometer machine with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding the handles with both hands.

## How to do it

1. Stand in front of the ski ergometer machine with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding the handles with both hands.
2. Begin by pulling both handles down towards your thighs simultaneously, extending your elbows while pushing your hips back, bending your knees, and leaning your torso forward.
3. Bring your arms back up to the starting position in a controlled manner.
4. Continue pulling the handles down at a consistent pace for the desired duration or number of repetitions.

## Form tips

- Breathe steadily and rhythmically to maintain oxygen flow during the exercise.
- Focus on using both your arms and legs to distribute the effort evenly and delay fatigue.
- Adjust the resistance level if needed to provide a challenging but manageable workout.
