Band Straight-Back Standing Row
Standing tall with a band anchored ahead at chest height, both handles rowed to the waist while the back stays straight and still.
How to do it
Setup
Standing a step back from the anchor, feet hip-width, knees soft, a handle in each hand.
Steps
- Row the handles to the waist without leaning back.
- Squeeze the blades and hold the chest up.
- Let the band pull the arms forward slowly.
Common mistakes
Leaning back to stretch the band: step farther from the anchor instead. Knees locked and hips pushed forward: soft knees, hips under the ribs. Shoulders rolling forward on the return: keep the chest up.
Breathing
Exhale on the row, inhale returning.
