Leverage Iso Row
A strength training exercise focused on the back muscles using a leverage gym machine.
Instructions
- Sit on the machine and adjust the seat height so the handles are aligned with your chest.
- Place your feet flat on the floor or on the machine's footrests.
- Grab the handles and extend your arms fully towards the machine.
- Keeping your core engaged, pull the handles towards your chest by bending your elbows.
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the end of the motion.
- Slowly extend your arms back to the starting position.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Not adjusting the seat height correctly, which can lead to discomfort or ineffective exercise.
- Rounding the back instead of keeping it straight, which can cause injury.
- Using momentum to pull the weight instead of controlled muscle action.
- Not squeezing shoulder blades together at the end of each rep.
