Exercise Description

The chair inverted row builds your middle back and improves posture. It's perfect for home workouts when you don't have gym equipment.

How To

1. Set up two sturdy chairs about shoulder-width apart and place a broomstick or bar across them. 2. Lie underneath the chair inverted row setup and grab the bar with an overhand grip. 3. Keep your body straight from head to heels, like a plank position. 4. Pull your chest up to the bar by squeezing your shoulder blades together. 5. Lower yourself back down slowly and repeat the chair inverted row movement.

Form Tips

• Keep your core tight throughout the entire chair inverted row movement • Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top of each rep • Don't let your hips sag - maintain a straight line from head to heels • Control the lowering phase of the chair inverted row for better results

Common Mistakes

• Letting your hips drop creates a banana shape instead of staying straight • Pulling with your arms instead of leading with your back muscles during the chair inverted row • Going too fast and losing control of the chair inverted row movement
