Inverted Row
Expert Advice
Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels, engaging your core to prevent your hips from sagging. This will maximize the engagement of your back muscles.
How-to-do Steps
- Set the bar at waist height on a Smith machine or squat rack.
- Lie underneath the bar, and grab it with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
- Position yourself with your heels on the ground, body straight, and arms fully extended.
- Pull your chest towards the bar by bending your elbows and squeezing your shoulder blades together.
- Pause at the top, then slowly lower yourself back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
