How To Do Seated Rows With A Resistance Band

Seated Rows are a classic exercise for strengthening the back and arms and can be done easily with a resistance band for more continuous tension throughout the move.

Level/Difficulty: Beginner to Advanced

 

Muscle Group(s): back, shoulders, biceps, core

Equipment: resistance band

Exercise groups: Lower Body Exercises, Full Body Exercises, Lower Body Exercises, Core Strengthening Exercises, Upper Body Exercises, Posture Strengthening Exercises

 

Coaching Cues:
Maintain neutral spine, keep ribcage down throughout, exhale to “row”, knees can be slightly bent

Before starting:

Be sure to use a weight that is not too heavy.

  1. Using a resistance band of your choice, sit with your legs outstretched in front of you and position the band around your feet.

  2. Sit tall from the hips. You can unlock your knees if this makes the exercise more comfortable.

  3. Remove the slack from the band, and ensure that your shoulders aren't shrugged.

  4. Retract and squeeze your shoulder blades, then perform the row, drawing your elbows backwards and keeping them close to your sides.

Do your best to not shrug your shoulders with each row.
