Machine Bent-Over Neutral-Grip Row (with Chest Support)
Standing on the platform of a plate-loaded row machine, chest on the pad, the neutral handles rowed back along the ribs.
How to do it
Setup
Feet on the platform, chest on the angled pad, the vertical handles gripped palms in, arms long.
Steps
- Row the handles until the elbows pass the torso.
- Keep the chest pressed into the pad.
- Lower the levers to a full stretch.
Common mistakes
Chest lifting off the pad to finish: lighter plates. Elbows flaring: the neutral handles keep them along the ribs. Short reps at the bottom: let the arms hang long each time.
Breathing
Exhale on the row, inhale lowering.
