1 / 2How to
Movement instructions
Attach a single handle to a high pulley and make your weight selection.
Kneel in front of the cable tower, taking the cable with one hand with your arm extended. This will be your starting position.
Starting with your palm facing forward, pull the weight down to your torso by flexing the elbow and retract the shoulder blade. As you do so, rotate the wrist so that at the completion of the movement, your palm is now facing you.
After a brief pause, return to the starting position.

Your progress
Keep the same cable setup, range of motion and recording method when comparing Kneeling Single-Arm High Pulley Row sessions.
Weight, repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 3 sets of 8 reps at 30 kg. Next time, record the actual result, even if it is the same.
Look for more repetitions at the same weight, or a heavier weight for comparable repetitions. Total weight lifted also changes when you add sets, so it is not a strength score.
