Seated row: Here’s how to do it.

Here’s how to do it.

1. Sit, grab the handle and hinge forward to maximize the range of motion of shoulder extension.

2. Pull the handle towards the torso, bring your elbows to side of the torso without lurching your shoulders.

3. To avoid lurching, retract and depress the scapular (without compromising trunk stability) while you are performing shoulder extension.

Note: If the body is in an upright position, the ROM for shoulder extension will be minimized and also great chance of unnecessary trunk extension. Not wrong just depends on what your intentions are with the exercise.
