How to Do
How to Do Alternating Rowing with a Seated Resistance Band on Ball
The alternating row weight-lifting on the ball should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the alternating row weight-lifting on the ball.
Beginning
Beginning Rowing with a Seated Resistance Band
Sit with your legs straight and wide on the floor. Wrap the band around both feet's soles. To construct an X-shape with the handles, cross them over in your palms. Sit tall with a straight back and pull the handles into your ribs with your arms.
Movement
Rowing with a Seated Resistance Band Movement
1. Choose an SB that will allow you to sit on it with your knees bent at about ninety degrees.
2. Sit upright on the ball with the tubing handles in your hands. Your arms will be fully extended, with your palms facing the ground. Your wrists, elbows, and shoulders should be in line with the band.
3. Tighten up your core muscles to keep your body aligned, and to help you balance on the ball. Ensure that your head is in line with your shoulders and hips. Slightly tense your legs to keep your body centered on the ball. Your feet should be flat on the floor, about shoulder-width apart.
4. Raise one foot off the ground. Once you're able to balance, pull your shoulder blades back and down, then pull one elbow straight back, and bring the handle in toward the side of your chest. Your upper arm will be parallel to the ground, and your wrist should remain in line with your forearm. As you allow the arm to return to its starting position, start to pull back with the other arm. Alternate sides for the required number of repetitions.
