The Lever Reverse T-Bar Row is a strength training exercise that targets the muscles in the back, shoulders, and arms. It is typically performed using a lever machine, which incorporates a T-bar attachment for added resistance.
How to perform
To perform the Lever Reverse T-Bar Row exercise, follow these step-by-step instructions:1. Adjust the lever machine to the desired resistance level and attach the T-bar to the machine.
2. Stand facing the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
3. Grasp the T-bar with an overhand grip, positioning your hands shoulder-width apart.
4. Keeping your back straight and core engaged, hinge forward at the hips while maintaining a slight bend in your knees. Your arms should be fully extended in front of you, with the T-bar hanging below the machine.
5. Pull the T-bar towards your chest in a rowing motion, squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
6. Slowly lower the T-bar back to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the movement.
7. Perform the desired number of repetitions, focusing on proper form and technique.
8. Remember to breathe consistently throughout the exercise, exhaling as you pull the T-bar towards your chest and inhaling as you lower it back down.
9. Once you have completed the set, release the T-bar and carefully step away from the machine.
It is important to start with a light weight and focus on maintaining proper form before increasing the resistance level. Consult with a fitness professional if you are unsure about how to perform this exercise safely and effectively.
Equipment required
Leverage Machine (Plate Loaded)
Leverage Machine (Plate Loaded) equipment is used for strength training exercises. It consists of a weight-loaded lever system attached to a seat or bench to provide resistance. These machines are designed to target specific muscle groups and allow for controlled and isolated movements to build muscle strength and mass. They are commonly used for exercises such as chest presses, squats, rows, and shoulder presses.
