TRX Lat Stretch (Sitting Back)
Holding both TRX handles overhead on straight arms, sit the hips back and down; the lats lengthen as the body hangs from the straps.
How to do it
Setup
Facing the TRX anchor, a handle in each hand overhead, arms straight, feet hip-width.
Steps
- Sit the hips back and down, heels on the floor.
- Let the arms go long overhead until the sides of the back stretch.
- Hold and breathe, then stand up by driving through the legs.
Common mistakes
Letting the straps go slack: stay far enough back to keep them taut. Bending the elbows: keep the arms straight so the lats take the stretch. Dropping into the bottom: lower slowly and stop at a firm pull.
Breathing
Slow and even through the hold.
