Pulling Motion 1
“The Row”
Here is
what you can do about it:
If your shoulders are rounded forward from sitting all day in front of a
computer “The Row” is an exercise that can help retract and
correct your posture. The row is a pulling motion that will help
strengthen major muscles of the back including the lats, posterior deltoid,
traps, and rhomboids. This exercise can be performed in many variations.
The
Machine Row
- Sit facing the machine with an arch in your lower back (Good
Extension)
- Pull the handle or handles straight back towards your torso while
you exhale
- Drive your elbows as far back as possible for you to squeeze your
shoulder blades together.
Equipment Variations
- Tubing
- Dumbbells and flat/incline bench
- Barbell
- Rings
Please consult one of BREAKTHRU’s trainers with any questions about
this movement.
