Common Loop Band Standing Single Arm Row mistakes

What goes wrong most often when you do the Loop Band Standing Single Arm Row, and how to fix it.

  • Your torso twists toward the pulling side to gain range of motion.

    Keep your chest facing the anchor and let only the shoulder and elbow of the working arm move.

  • The shoulder of the working arm rises toward your ear at the end.

    Finish each rep by pulling your shoulder blade back and down, with your elbow against your ribs.

  • You do more reps with your strong side than with your weak side.

    Start with the weaker side and match it with the other, standing the same distance from the anchor.
