The Rower

Check Points:
❑ At the Starting Position, the lower back must not be arched
excessively off the ground. To prevent this, tighten the abdominal
muscles to tilt the pelvis and lower back toward the ground.
❑ At the end of Counts 1 and 3, the feet are flat and pulled near the
buttocks. The legs stay together throughout the exercise and
the arms are parallel to the ground.
Precautions: This exercise is always performed at a slow cadence.
Do not arch the back to assume Counts 1 and 3.
