Single-sidedTargets: Lats, Lower trap

About

The Hammer Strength Iso-Lateral Row is a machine row where each arm moves independently. It helps correct muscle imbalances and gives your lats and mid-back a strong workout.

How to Hammer Strength ISO-Lateral Row

Starting Position

1. Sit on the machine seat and place your feet on the footrest.

2. Press your chest against the pad and prepare with your back straight.

3. Grab the handles with both hands or one hand at a time and extend your arms forward to start.

Proper Form

1. Pull the handle towards your body by pulling one or both elbows back.

2. Squeeze your shoulder blades together, contracting your latissimus dorsi and back muscles.

3. Alternate between left and right or use both simultaneously to provide balanced stimulation.

4. Slowly extend your arms and return to the starting position.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when pulling the handle, and inhale while extending your arms and turning.

Precautions

1. Check the strength difference between your arms and be mindful not to primarily use the stronger side.

2. Keep your back straight and be careful not to lift or twist your upper body.

3. Do not lift excessive weight and perform within a range that you can control until the end.
