Açıklama
The low row is a compound exercise that targets the upper back and rear shoulder muscles. This exercise effectively works the rhomboid, middle trapezius, and posterior deltoid muscles. Because it is performed in a seated position, stress on the lower back is minimized. It plays an important role in promoting healthy posture and proper shoulder alignment. It also strengthens the rotator cuff muscles and enhances shoulder stability. It can be used for both strength and hypertrophy goals.
