Band seated row

• Maintain a straight back and engage your core as you prepare to start the exercise.
• Slowly pull the band towards your waist while keeping your elbows close to your body, ensuring you squeeze your shoulder blades together as you do this.
• Hold this position for a moment, feeling the tension in your back muscles.
• Gradually release and extend your arms back to the starting position, ensuring you maintain control throughout the movement to complete one rep. Repeat this process for your desired number of repetitions.

• Maintain Good Posture: Keep your back straight and your chest out throughout the exercise. Avoid rounding your shoulders or hunching over, as this can lead to back strain and won't target the muscles as effectively.
• Control Your Movements: When you pull the band towards your waist, do so in a controlled manner, focusing on the contraction of your back muscles. Avoid jerky movements or using momentum to pull the band, as this can lead to injury and won't effectively work your muscles.
• Full Range of Motion: Make sure to fully extend your arms in the forward position and pull the band back as far as comfortable in the row position. This ensures you're getting the full benefit of the exercise.
