Wide Grip Seated Row
Here are the steps to perform a wide grip seated row exercise:
- Sit on the row machine with your feet flat on the platform and your knees slightly bent.
- Grab the cable attachment with your hands wider than shoulder-width apart, using an overhand grip.
- Lean back slightly, keeping your back straight, and extend your arms fully.
- Inhale and pull the handle towards your abdomen, while leaning back slightly.
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together and keep your elbows close to your body.
- Exhale and slowly return to the starting position by extending your arms and leaning forward.
- Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
It is important to maintain proper form throughout the exercise to avoid injury and maximize the effectiveness of the workout. Keep your back straight, engage your core, and avoid using momentum to pull the weight. Additionally, make sure to use a weight that is appropriate for your fitness level and gradually increase the weight as you become stronger.
