cable machine

Weighted pulley station

A cable machine is a piece of gym equipment that uses adjustable pulleys and weighted cables to provide resistance for strength training.

The cables allow movement in multiple directions, unlike fixed-path machines: I did tricep pushdowns on the cable machine.

Most gyms have at least one, often with dual stacks for exercises like cable crossovers.
