How to do it
- Attach a long straight bar to the low pulley and sit with your feet on the platform, knees slightly bent.
- Grab the bar overhand, wider than your shoulders, arms straight and chest up.
- Row the bar to your lower chest, letting your elbows travel back and slightly out.
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together, then return slowly until your arms are straight.
- Keep your torso still and upright; don't lean back to finish the rep.
Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
