Cable Seated Wide Grip Row
A step-by-step form guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the lift, what to watch for, and the muscles it trains.
- Equipment
- Cable
HOW TO PERFORM
- Attach a long bar to the cable row station, sit with the feet on the platform and take the bar with an overhand grip well wider than the shoulders.
- Sit tall with the arms straight out in front.
- Row the bar to the lower chest, driving the elbows out and back.
- Return under control to a full reach without letting the low back round.
FORM TIPS
- The elbows travel out from the sides instead of past the ribs, which moves the work toward the upper back and the rear delts.
