Lateral Low Row Machine

Upper Back Machine

Description

The lateral low row machine is a piece of gym equipment designed to target the muscles of the upper back, including the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, and traps. Individuals sit on the machine with their chest against the pad and grasp the handles, then pull the handles towards the sides of the torso, squeezing the shoulder blades together at the end of the movement. This exercise helps to strengthen the back muscles, improve posture, and enhance overall upper body strength and stability when performed with proper form and control.

How To

01 Set the seat and pad so handles sit at chest height
02 Sit tall, feet flat, grip handles palms facing in
03 Pull the handles to your sides, driving your elbows back
04 Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the finish
05 Control the release back to a full stretch
