Position

Sit on the cable row machine with your feet flat on the platform, knees slightly bent, and back straight.

Movement

• Grasp the handles with an overhand grip, hands shoulder-width apart, and extend your arms in front of you.
• Pull the handles towards your chest by retracting your shoulder blades and bending your elbows.
• Squeeze your back muscles at the top of the movement, then slowly lower the handles back to the starting position.

Breathing

Exhale as you pull the handles towards your chest and inhale as you return to the starting position.

Tips

• Keep your back straight and core engaged throughout the exercise to prevent arching or rounding.
• Focus on pulling with your back muscles rather than using momentum to complete the movement.
• Avoid shrugging your shoulders or swinging the weight to maintain proper form.
