Leverage High Row

This one is like a sturdy bear hauling branches close to its chest. The leverage machine guides the path, so you can focus on pulling strong, squeezing your upper back, and moving with steady control.

Instructions

1. Adjust the seat so the handles sit near chest height.
2. Plant your feet flat and sit tall against the pad.
3. Grab the handles with a firm overhand grip.
4. Pull the handles toward your upper chest.
5. Squeeze your upper back at the end position.
6. Return the handles slowly to the start.
