How to do it

  1. Suspend your straps at around chest height. Take a handle in each hand and lean back. Keep your body erect and your head and chest up. Your arms should be fully extended. This will be your starting position.
  2. Begin by flexing the elbow to initiate the movement. Protract your shoulder blades as you do so.
  3. At the completion of the motion pause, and then return to the starting position.

Track it with MyoAmigo

MyoAmigo pre-fills every set of the Suspended Row from last time, charts your estimated 1RM trend so you can see strength move without testing a true max, and flags a stall with a concrete fix. It also credits this work toward your weekly Middle Back volume on the MyoMap heatmap. New to the movement? Start with picking a working weight and progressive overload.
