Cable Rope Elevated Seated Row
The rope row seated high above the low pulley, so the cable climbs to the hands; the rope's ends part beside the waist.
How to do it
Setup
Seated on the long bench, feet braced on the plate, the rope in both hands, arms long.
Steps
- Row the rope to the waist, elbows sliding past the ribs.
- Split the ends apart beside the hips.
- Return to long arms, blades gliding forward.
Common mistakes
Pulling the rope to the chest: this line ends at the waist. Ends staying together: split them past the hips. Rocking back for the last reps: the torso stays upright; lighter stack.
Breathing
Exhale on the row, inhale returning.
