How to Do Cable Squat Row
Each cable squat row should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop this cable squat row.
Beginning
Beginning Cable Squat Row
1. Begin in a standing position with feet hip-width apart.
2. Squat in front of the cable machine and take cable in each hand.
3. In row position, pull cables up and back as you stand.
4. Make sure to utilize good shoulder abduction.
5. Maintain posture throughout and keep both feet flat on the ground throughout this exercise.
6. If you lift from your toes, the weight is too heavy
Cable Squat Row Movement
1. Stand between the two cable columns, and adjust the cables until they are at roughly waist height. Stand two to three feet from the table columns with your feet about shoulder-width apart, with one handle in each hand. Your arms should be fully extended, and there should be some tension on the cable, with the weights of the stack.
2. Draw up your spine and make sure that your head, shoulders, hips, and knees are in line. Tighten your abdominals to support your back and spine.
3. Keeping your arms fully extended in front of you, sit back into a squat, making sure that your knees don't go beyond your toes. At the lowest point, your thighs should be parallel to the ground. Pause and then push up through the heels to return to a standing position. As you come fully upright, simultaneously pull your shoulder blades back and down and drive your elbows back and pull the rope handles in toward the chest. You'll feel your shoulder blades draw closer together during the movement. Allow your arms to fully extend.
4. Repeat for the required number of repetitions.
