One Arm Seated High Row, Straight Back Form

Pull cable attachment to side while pulling shoulder back, arching spine, and pushing chest forward. Return until arm is extended and shoulder is pulled forward. Repeat.

If two high pulleys are available, consider using opposite pulley as arm exercised. If pulley is far enough away, it is optional to bend the lower back forward during the stretch and pull it upright during contraction. See Cable One Arm Seated High Row. Quadratus Lumborum and Obliques are involved in spinal rotation if waist rotates. Hamstrings and Gluteus Maximus become stabilizers, if seated on a bench with feet propped forward with no upper leg support.
