Cable Side Plank Row

A one-arm cable row from a forearm side plank, the top hand pulling a handle from the pulley while the hips stay lifted.

How to do it

Setup

Side plank on the forearm facing a cable pulley, the top hand holding its handle with the arm long.

Steps

  1. Row the handle to the lower ribs, the elbow driving back.
  2. Keep the hips lifted and stacked as you pull.
  3. Let the arm reach long again under control.

Common mistakes

Hips sagging toward the floor: the plank holds through every rep. Twisting the chest toward the stack: the arm and the blade row, not a turn. Stack too heavy to hold the plank: go lighter; the plank fails first.

Breathing

Exhale on the row, inhale returning.
