How to perform
1
Adjust the seat height and chest pad so the handles are at the level of your lower chest and your torso is supported.
2
Grasp the handles with a pronated or neutral grip (palms facing each other). Keep your back straight and chest out.
3
Pull the handles back and towards you in a circular motion. Focus on using your back muscles, not your biceps.
4
Squeeze your shoulder blades together forcefully at the peak of the movement.
5
Slowly and controllably return the handles to the starting position, feeling a stretch in your back muscles.
