Cable Single Arm Row (Low)

How to do it

  1. Set the cable pulley at its lowest position and stand facing the machine, gripping the handle with one hand.
  2. Set a staggered stance with a slight forward lean and brace your core before pulling.
  3. Pull the handle straight back toward your hip, keeping the elbow close to your torso as it travels behind you.
  4. Squeeze the latissimus dorsi and biceps at the back of the movement while your opposite hand rests on your knee or hip for support.
  5. Exhale on the pull, hold briefly, then extend your arm forward under control to stretch back out.
  6. Keep your hips square to the machine throughout; avoid rotating your torso to extend the range of motion.
