Cable Rope Extension Incline Bench Row
Chest down on an incline bench in front of a low pulley, a rope rowed up to the chest with the ends parting beside the ribs.
How to do it
Setup
Chest on the incline bench, feet braced on the floor, the rope held at arm's length toward the pulley.
Steps
- Row the rope to the chest, elbows past the back.
- Part the ends as the hands reach the ribs.
- Return long, arms reaching toward the pulley.
Common mistakes
Chest lifting off the bench: the support keeps the back out of it. Rope ends staying together: part them at the finish. Bench too far from the pulley for a full stretch: move it closer.
Breathing
Exhale on the row, inhale returning.
