Inverted Row

Starting position

• Set a bar at hip height (Smith machine or rack) and lie under it.
• Grip shoulder-width, body straight, only the heels on the floor.

Execution

• Pull the chest to the bar, the body stays in a line.
• Lower under control until the arms are straight.
• Easier: bend the knees or set the bar higher.

Common mistakes

• Hips sagging.
• Reaching the chin to the bar instead of pulling the chest.
• Jerking up.
