How to do it

  1. 1

    Start in a push-up position gripping a dumbbell in each hand — hands under your shoulders, body in a straight line.

  2. 2

    Keep your hips level and still — don't let them rotate.

  3. 3

    Breathe out as you pull one dumbbell up toward your hip, leading with your elbow.

  4. 4

    Breathe in as you lower it back to the floor — that's one rep. Repeat on the other side.

Where you should feel it: Your back, your stomach and your sides.

What your coach says mid-set

  • “Hips stay level, no rocking”
  • “Pull the weight toward your hip”
  • “Feet wide for a firm base”

Common mistakes

Hips twisting as you row

Set your feet wider and row only as high as your hips stay still.
