Pull through

A Attach a rope handle to the low pulley of a cable machine. Grab an end of the rope in each hand and stand with your back to the weight stack.

B Thrust your hips forward, squeeze your glutes, and raise your torso back to the starting position. That's one rep. Note: Your arms should stay straight throughout the entire movement.
