@arielyu.fit: Key Technical Points for the Seated Cable Row: App from @Fitbod App 1. Use a neutral grip: This helps reduce excessive involvement of the forearm flexors and enhances activation of the back muscles. 2. Maintain consistent elbow angle: Avoid actively flexing the forearms during the pull to prevent biceps dominance. Keep the humerus and forearm at approximately a 90-degree angle to ensure primary engagement of the latissimus dorsi. 3. Depress the scapulae: Do not shrug your shoulders. Actively pull the shoulder blades downward to engage the lower trapezius and lats while minimizing shoulder tension. 4. Control torso movement: Avoid excessive leaning back, which can lead to compensation by the spinal erectors and upper back. Maintain a neutral spine or a slight lean of about 10-15 degrees for optimal posture. 5. Keep the humerus close to the torso: As you pull, the elbows should track along the sides of the body, keeping the upper arms close. This maximizes activation of the mid-fibers of the latissimus dorsi. #fitbodapp #cablerows #back #backworkout #upperbody
