How to do it
- Adjust the foot platform or chest pad so you can just reach the handles with straight arms, then lean your chest onto the pad.
- Grab the handles and let your arms hang straight, shoulders stretched forward.
- Row the handles toward your lower chest, driving your elbows back and squeezing your shoulder blades.
- Lower the weight slowly until your arms are straight again.
- Keep your chest on the pad; lifting it to heave the weight takes the work away from your back.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
