Cable Palm Rotational Row
The one-arm row from a low cable, the palm turning from facing down at the reach to facing up at the hip.
How to do it
Setup
Standing a step back from the low pulley, knees soft, hips hinged, one handle taken overhand, arm long.
Steps
- Row the handle toward the hip, turning the palm up as it comes.
- Finish with the palm up and the elbow behind the body.
- Return long, turning the palm back down.
Common mistakes
Turning the hand all at once at the end: rotate it gradually through the pull. Torso rising as the handle comes in: hold the hinge. Shoulders twisting open: keep them square to the pulley.
Breathing
Exhale on the row, inhale returning.
