Band row – how to do it right
Band at belly height, pull your elbows back close to your body.
This is how Stickfreed, our glowing stick figure, shows you the exercise on your TV – here the start, middle and end position. In the app he turns slowly so you can see everything.
How to do it
- Anchor the band at belly height with soft knees.
- Pull your elbows back close to your body.
- Shoulder blades together and shoulders down.
- Upper body stays tall.
How long?
40–45 seconds at a steady pace: slow on the way down, strong on the way up. 2–4 rounds.
If something niggles
Then do Supported one-arm row instead. Stop if it hurts; if you have complaints or pre-existing conditions, check with a doctor or physio first.
