Standing in front of the machine with your hands on the handle. Your pelvis tilted forward. You’re standing on one leg and the other connected to the low pulley :

Tilt your pelvis forward

This exercise works mainly gluteus maximus and a little bit of hamstrings with the exception of biceps femoris short head.
This exercise allows you to develop shapely legs while increasing muscle tone to your gluteals.
