About

It's a very easy back workout that can be done at home. Hold the band tightly with both hands and pull it up!

How to Band Bent Over Row

Starting Position

1. Please spread your legs shoulder-width apart.

2. Hold the band and open your chest.

3. Bend your knees slightly and lean your upper body forward.

Proper Form

1. Please pull the band towards your belly button so that it can go up vertically.

2. While bringing your shoulder blades together, naturally pull your elbows and hands.

3. Using the strength of your back, lower your hands down to below your knees.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when pulling your arms, and inhale when extending your arms.

Precautions

2. Please be careful not to arch your back too much or move it up and down.

3. Engage your core to prevent your back from rounding.
