High Cable Row (Half Kneeling Variation)
– set the cable machine overhead with the close grip handle attached
– while grasping the handle, lower onto the floor in a half kneeling position (meaning one knee is down and the other knee is up, providing stabilization)
– tighten the core and retract your shoulder blades, hands will still be extended overhead
– using your lats, pull the handle towards your chest (elbows should stay tight against your body and not flare outwards)
– squeeze your back before slowly returning the weight overhead
– maintain tension on the muscle and a slight stretch before repeating the movement for desired repetitions
