Pulley High Row Standing Tips

  2. Grasp the handles with an overhand grip, keeping your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
  3. Engage your core and maintain a slight bend in your knees throughout the exercise.
  4. Keep your back straight and avoid rounding your shoulders. Imagine squeezing a pencil between your shoulder blades.
  5. Initiate the movement by pulling the handles towards your chest, leading with your elbows.

  7. Focus on a controlled and smooth motion, avoiding any jerking or swinging.
