How to do standing cable row

Coach's Tips

Utilizing cables allows for more consistent tension compared to using barbells or dumbbells. Ensure your core and legs are engaged to prevent any body movement!

Start Position

1. Position yourself facing the cable machine with your feet aligned to hip-width and knees slightly bent.

2. Grasp the cable handle with both hands, with arms fully extended in front at chest level.

Proper Form

1. With arms outstretched, draw the cable handle towards your chest while keeping your back straight and core tight.

2. Pinch your shoulder blades together and pause briefly.

3. Gradually return to the initial position.

Breathing Technique

1. Breathe out as you bring the cable handle towards your chest.

2. Breathe in as you slowly return to the initial stance.

Precautions

1. Maintain a straight back and engaged core throughout.

2. Refrain from using momentum to pull the cable handle.

3. Avoid overextending your arms at the conclusion of the movement.
