How to Do Seated Low Cable Back Rows
- Connect a V-bar attachment to the low pulley on a cable station or cable rowing machine.
- Sit down at the station and place your feet on the foot pads or crossbar provided, while keeping your knees slightly bent.
- Lean forward, keeping your back straight and grip the V-bar handles with both hands.
- Keeping your arms fully extended pull back until your torso is at a 90-degree angle from your legs.
