Friends who are exercising in the gym must be familiar with the equipment there, especially for novices, who do not have much experience in free weight training, so it is relatively safer to choose fixed equipment. Trainers who want to exercise latissimus dorsi can choose the fitness equipment of the seated rowing machine. However, many people are not very clear about the correct usage of this equipment. Today, let’s take a look at how to use the seated rowing machine.
Usage 1: Before exercising, first: Debugging equipment
There are many equipment in the gym. When we encounter fitness peaks, many equipment are used by people. When we come into contact with the equipment, we need to first check its safety. For sitting rowing machines, we should pay attention to adjusting the weight. Especially for novices, the weight used by others may not be suitable for them. We must first try with a lighter weight. Never be blinded by our self-esteem. Exercise safety is the first priority. Exercise risks will be bad if it is too large. .
Usage 2: Straighten the back and avoid shrugging
Using a seated rowing machine is to better exercise our latissimus dorsi. This requires us to straighten the back and tighten the core after sitting on the instrument. To avoid shrugging, we must tighten and sink the shoulder blades. Do not use too much force on both hands, just hook the handle. If you hold your chest and hunch your back during training, then the stimulation of the back muscles is very limited, and shrugging will easily damage the shoulder joints. If your hands are too strong, then your arms will leverage force.
Usage 3: Ensure the complete movements
With the sitting rowing machine, you must complete the movements, pull up the weight, and then slowly and controllly. Instead of pursuing speed, you are eager to put down just after pulling up the weight. Repeat this, the stimulation of the latissimus dorsi is very limited. After all, when using equipment for training, it is to help us better feel the muscle force, and exercise quality is the primary priority.
