Seated machine row


Target: Shoulders, back, lats

Form tips:

  • Adjust the machine to the correct height – you should be able to pull the handles toward your body with elbows at 90 degrees.
  • Sit up tall and activate your core.
  • The row should start with pulling back your shoulder blades.
  • Keep your shoulders down away from your ears or your traps will be doing all the work.

Modification – Dumbbell single-arm row:

  • If you can't access a machine, go back to basics to isolate and work the same muscles.
