    How to: Cable Single Arm High Row

    1. Set the cable pulley at a low position.
    2. Stand facing the cable machine with feet shoulder-width apart.
    3. Reach for the handle with one arm, ensuring a neutral grip.
    4. Pull the handle towards your torso while keeping your elbow close to your body.
    5. Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the end of the movement.
    6. Return to the starting position with control and repeat.

    Common Mistakes

    • Pulling with the arm rather than engaging the back.
    • Excessive leaning forward or backward.
    • Neglecting to engage the core for stability.

    Modifications

    • Use lighter weights to reduce strain on the back.
    • Perform the exercise seated for more stability.

    Tips

    • Maintain a neutral spine throughout the movement.
    • Avoid using momentum; control the motion while rowing.
    • Ensure the elbow follows a natural path during the pull.
