    How to: Inverted Wide Row

    1. Set a bar at waist height and grab it with a wide grip.
    2. Walk your feet forward until your body is straight and your heels are on the ground.
    3. Pull your chest towards the bar, keeping your elbows wide.
    4. Lower yourself back down with control.

    Common Mistakes

    • Not maintaining a straight body line.
    • Allowing the hips to sag or rise too high.
    • Relying too much on arm strength instead of back muscles.

    Modifications

    • Perform the exercise with elevated feet to reduce difficulty.
    • Use a resistance band for assistance if needed.

    Tips

    • Keep your body in a straight line during the exercise.
    • Focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
    • Control the descent to engage the back muscles effectively.
