The classic strength exercise for a strong back

The row pull is an excellent exercise to strengthen the back, neck and biceps. Regularly performing this strength exercise helps to improve your posture.

The different rowing train variants can be easily integrated into any fitness program. They not only promote muscle strength, but also general fitness and endurance.

Rowing train on the EISENHORN

The lateral rowing pulley on the EISENHORN enables effective training for the back and biceps. The machine allows you to perform this exercise in the best possible way and offers numerous row pull variations and alternative exercises. This versatility makes the EISENHORN the ideal training device for comprehensive strength training at home.

Advantages of the rudder pull

The row pull is an extremely effective strength exercise with many benefits for fitness and health. Regular exercise improves posture, prevents back pain, strengthens muscles and endurance and is easy on the joints. The exercise is ideal for all age groups, efficient and improves body coordination. Thanks to its adaptability to different fitness levels and execution variations, the row pull exercise is an enrichment for any training program.

Correct execution of the row pull

There are many different versions of this exercise. In the classic standing rowing pull, you stand sideways in front of the EISENHORN in a staggered foot position. The two ends of the grip tape, which has been pulled through the horn loop, are each gripped with one hand. Now pull your elbows back as far as possible, sliding your hands close to your upper body and guiding the movement along your ribs.

The shoulders remain pulled back and the torso tensed throughout the exercise. This is crucial in order to generate traction primarily from the upper back muscles and train them effectively. The movement should be performed slowly and in a controlled manner.

Muscles used in the rowing pull

The row pull exercise works numerous muscle groups. However, the back muscles are mainly trained, with both the upper and lower back muscles working intensively. Depending on the version, the shoulders, arms and torso are also more involved.

Row pull training focuses in particular on the broad latissimus back muscle (latissimus dorsi muscle). This muscle group is intensively activated during movement and contributes significantly to the development of strength and stability of the back. In addition, the row pull exercise helps to strengthen the rear shoulders (musculus deltoideus pars clavicularis), (especially if the exercise is performed with a wide grip).

The trapezius muscle (musculus trapezius), the large and small rhomboid muscles (musculus rhomboideus minor et major), the biceps (musculus biceps brachii) and the brachialis muscle (musculus brachialis) provide support. These muscles help to stabilize and strengthen the pulling movement, resulting in a holistic training effect.

Conclusion on the rudder pull

This strength exercise improves posture, prevents back pain and builds muscle strength and endurance. It is easy on the joints, ideal for all age groups and promotes body coordination. Thanks to its adaptability to different fitness levels and the many variations that can be performed with a grip band, grip bar or pulley, the rowing machine is a valuable addition to any training program. Correct execution maximizes effectiveness and minimizes the risk of injury.
