How to Do
How to Do Inverted Row on the Smith Machine With Feet on Ball
The core muscles are also activated to hold your body in position on the SB.
Beginning
Beginning Inverted Row on the Smith Machine
Adjust the Smith machine or squat rack so that the bar is two or three feet higher than the dome of the SB. Place the SB a few feet in front of the bar.
Movement
Inverted Row on the Smith Machine Movement
1. Hold the bar with an overhand grip about one-and-a-half to twice shoulder-width apart. Hang from the bar with your arms extended fully, and with your chest directly under the bar. Place your heels on the dome of the SB. Straighten out your body so that your head, shoulders, hips, knees, and heels are in a straight line. Tighten up your core muscles and your glutes to hold the position. This is the start position.
2. Pull your shoulder blades back and down then drive your elbows back and down and lift the chest toward the bar. At the top of the movement, your upper arms should be parallel to the ground and bar, with elbows bent at 90 degrees.
3. Slowly lower your body back down, making sure that you don't fold or bend at the waist.
