Underhand Seated Cable Row
About
The undergrip seated cable row is a back exercise that strengthens your lower lats and biceps. It’s great for learning the pulling pattern and lets you keep your upper body stable.
How to Underhand Seated Cable Row
Starting Position
1. Sit on the cable row machine and secure your feet on the footplate.
2. Use an underhand grip (palms facing up) to grab the handle.
3. Slightly bend your knees and keep your upper body straight while extending your arms forward to start.
Proper Form
1. Extend your chest and pull your elbows towards your body to bring the handle close to your belly button.
2. Pull your shoulders back and contract your back as if you are squeezing your shoulder blades together.
3. Maintain a slight lean to prevent your upper body from leaning back excessively.
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. Do not round your waist; keep your spine straight.
2. Do not arch your back with momentum; pull only with the strength of your back muscles.
3. Maintain a neutral position to avoid excessive bending of the wrists.
