Resistance Band Inverted Row
The inverted row with a loop band stretched over the hips and anchored low on both sides; the band pulls the body down, and pulls hardest at the top.
How to do it
Setup
Under a bar at arm's reach, a loop band across the hips hooked low on both sides, heels on the floor, body straight.
Steps
- Pull the chest to the bar against the band.
- Hold the top for a beat, blades squeezed.
- Lower slowly, keeping the hips from dropping.
Common mistakes
Band slipping down the thighs: seat it on the front of the hips. Hips sagging under the band: brace the abs and squeeze the glutes. Rushing the lowering: the band speeds the drop; control it.
Breathing
Exhale on the pull, inhale on the way down.
