TRX Table Top Rows

The TRX tabletop row is a derivative of the TRX Inverted Row and the TRX Low Row, with the arm position of the TRX Wide Grip Row. The defining position of this exercise is the 'tabletop' position', which automatically makes the exercise more difficult than the aforementioned ones, due to the exercise beginning in a horizontal position.

Steps

Step 1: Begin by leaning back until your body forms a tabletop, adjust the TRX height accordingly.

Step 2: Your feet are placed directly under the TRX anchor while holding onto the TRX handles with arm outstretched.

Step 3: Engage your gluteshamstrings, upper back and abdominals to keep you in a solid position as you pull yourself upwards using your back muscles.

Step 4: Lower yourself back down.

Step 5: Repeat.

How to progress the exercise

In order to have better control of the shoulder stabilizers in this exercise, start performing the exercise with knees and hips bent at 90 degrees (seated position). From there, you can progress to a straight-bodied position, then to a more horizontal position.

Additional Information

Tip: The progression of this exercise will be a lot slower, due to the lack of bigger lat muscle engagement. Due to this, it is better to begin the exercise in a more upright position to better work the smaller shoulder girdle muscles with proper form.
