# Cable Upright Row with EZ Bar

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, facing the cable machine with an EZ bar attached to the low pulley.

## How to do it

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, facing the cable machine with an EZ bar attached to the low pulley. Grasp the EZ bar with both hands using an overhand grip (palms facing down), hands shoulder-width apart.
2. Pull the EZ bar upwards towards your chin by bending your elbows and raising your upper arms, leading with your elbows, keeping the bar close to your body.
3. Slowly lower the bar back to the starting position with control.
4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

## Form tips

- Keep your back straight and avoid using momentum.
- Keep your elbows higher than your wrists throughout the movement.
- Exhale as you pull the EZ bar up and inhale as you lower it back down.
