Traditional Body Row
This exercise is performed by placing your feet on
the upper footrest and grasping the bungee cords
located at the front of the BODYROW™. Push back
with your legs as you pull the bungee cords toward
your chest. As you approach full leg extension (do
not extend fully and lock your knees), row your
arms into your chest and out to the side as you
begin to let the bungee cords pull you back to the
starting position (see workout video for demonstration). Repeat this motion until
you get into a synchronized rhythm with your upper and lower body. This
exercise resembles traditional rowing which provides an outstanding total body
workout. You will also receive an outstanding cardiovascular workout at the
same time.
Targets: Arms, chest, shoulders, lats, core abdominal area, thighs, hips
buttocks, quads and calves.
Recommendation: Three to five minutes with 2 – 3 bands.
Cool Down
Go back to the Total Body Row position for one to two minutes, using 1 – 2
resistance bands. Exercise at a slower pace letting your heart rate drop and
your muscles cool down.
