Towel rows are a great exercise for working the large muscles of your back and arm. This is a very functional exercise that will aid in pulling open heavy cabinet drawers, pulling up your slacks and obviously pulling towels out of the washer and dryer.
HOW-TO:
- Stand up tall, with knees slightly bent, back neutral, tummy tight, neck long, chin back, chest up, shoulder blades back and down and one hand on a towel.
- Place the other hand on another towel. Have a buddy do the same thing with the other ends of the towels that you are grabbing. Keep your elbow close to your sides, shoulder blades stable and body upright.
- Draw the towel towards your body and drive your elbow back as your partner resists the motion.
- The partner pulls the opposite arm and you must resist their force without overcoming it.
- Repeat.
