Cable Seated High Row (V-Bar)
The cable seated high row (v-bar) is a compound exercise targeting the latissimus dorsi, performed on a cable machine using a v-bar attachment. It also engages the biceps, rhomboids, and rear deltoids, making it effective for developing upper back strength and muscle definition.
Step-by-Step Form & Technique
- 1.Sit on the cable machine with your feet flat on the floor and your knees slightly bent.
- 2.Grasp the v-bar attachment with an overhand grip, palms facing each other, and your hands shoulder-width apart.
- 3.Keep your back straight and lean slightly forward from the hips.
- 4.Pull the v-bar towards your torso by retracting your shoulder blades and squeezing your back muscles.
- 5.Pause for a moment at the peak of the contraction, then slowly release the tension and return to the starting position.
- 6.Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
