Pulley Row Sit

The pulley row sit workout is a great exercise for targeting the upper back muscles.

By using a pulley system, this workout allows for a controlled and effective movement.

The pulley’s primary role is to engage the upper back muscles, such as the rhomboids and trapezius.

While it may also involve the biceps and forearms, the focus remains on the upper back muscles.

Stand facing the pulley machine with your feet shoulder-width apart.
Grasp the handles of the pulley machine with an overhand grip, palms facing down.
Keep your back straight and your core engaged as you lean forward, bending at the hips.
Extend your arms fully in front of you, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
Pull the handles towards your body, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
Pause for a moment, then slowly return to the starting position, fully extending your arms.
Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Focus on maintaining a strong and stable posture throughout the exercise. Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and core engaged. This will ensure proper alignment and maximize the engagement of your upper back muscles.
Begin the movement by retracting your shoulder blades. Imagine squeezing a pencil between them as you pull the handles towards your body. This will activate your rhomboids, trapezius, and latissimus dorsi muscles, providing a great workout for your upper back.
As you pull the handles towards your body, make sure to keep your elbows close to your sides. Avoid flaring them outwards, as this can shift the focus away from your upper back and onto your arms. By keeping your elbows tucked in, you’ll effectively target the desired muscle group.
Control the movement both on the way up and on the way down. Avoid using momentum to swing the handles, as this can diminish the effectiveness of the exercise. Instead, focus on a slow and controlled motion, feeling the tension in your upper back muscles throughout the entire range of motion.
Remember to breathe! Inhale before you start the movement, and exhale as you pull the handles towards your body. Breathing properly not only helps you maintain focus and control, but it also ensures that your muscles receive an adequate oxygen supply
