    How to: Cable Squat Row (with rope attachment)

    1. Attach the rope to the cable pulley at the lowest setting.
    2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent.
    3. Grab the rope with both hands and pull it towards your belly button, keeping your elbows close to your body.
    4. Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
    5. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat.

    Common Mistakes

    • Rounding the back while pulling.
    • Using too much momentum instead of controlled movement.

    Modifications

    • Use lighter weights or resistance if you're new to the exercise.
    • Perform the exercise seated to reduce strain on the lower back.

    Tips

    • Keep your back straight and core engaged throughout the movement.
    • Focus on pulling with your back muscles rather than your arms.
