Make every rep count.
- 01
Stand straddling the bar with it centered between your feet, then attach and grip the V-handle securely.
- 02
Brace your core, soften your knees, and hinge at the hips until your torso is about parallel to the floor (or slightly higher). Keep a neutral spine and your chest proud.
- 03
Start the pull by squeezing your shoulder blades back and down, then drive your elbows behind you (avoid shrugging).
- 04
Row the handle toward your torso until the plates lightly touch your chest/upper abdomen.
- 05
Pause briefly, then lower slowly to full arm extension without rounding your back or using momentum.
- 06
Repeat for the target reps, keeping your hips and torso stable throughout.
