Single-Arm Row (Towel)


Step 1 - Loop towel around door handle, hold both ends with one hand

Step 2 - Lean back with arm extended, feet planted firmly

Step 3 - Pull your body towards the door by rowing your elbow back

Step 4 - Lower back to starting position with control

Recommended Sets & Time:

  • Beginner: 2-3 sets of 6-10 reps each arm, 60 seconds rest

    Intermediate: 3-4 sets of 10-15 reps each arm, 45 seconds rest

    Advanced: 4-5 sets of 15-20 reps each arm, 30 seconds rest

What to Focus On:

  • Elbow drive - Focus on pulling your elbow back behind your body, not just bending your arm

  • Shoulder blade squeeze - Feel your shoulder blade pulling towards your spine as you row

  • Core stability - Keep your core engaged to maintain your leaning position

  • Controlled return - Lower yourself back slowly, feeling the stretch in your back muscles

Modifications:

  • Easier: Stand more upright with less lean back to reduce the resistance

  • Harder: Lean back further or lift one foot off the ground for added challenge
