Supination Pull

The cable supination pull trains the same outward-rotation strength as a supination curl, but in a pulling pattern that more directly mimics rotating an opponent's hand into a hook once you already have position.

Muscles Worked

Supinator, biceps

Equipment

Cable machine

How to Do It

  1. 1Attach a handle to a low cable or band anchor
  2. 2Rotate your forearm from pronated to supinated (palm up)
  3. 3Return to start with control

Sets & Reps

3-4 sets · 10-15 reps

Coaching Tips

  • Focus on full rotation until your palm faces up
  • Use full range of motion for maximum development

Common Mistakes

  • Pulling primarily with the shoulder and back instead of letting the supinator and biceps drive the rotation
  • Setting the cable at a height that turns this into a straight pull instead of a rotational one
