Seated Cable Row

Seated cable rows are essential in getting a thick and wide back. The key to targeting thickness verses width is the grip you chose. To maximize thickness in your back the V-bar attachment is your best choice. If you are looking for more width a straight bar or straight bar with handles will do you best. 

A common problem that occurs while doing this movement is the use of the bicep muscle. This defeats the whole purpose. To correctly perform this movement you want to back straight as possible and pull and squeeze your lats. When you reach the full contraction hold it for a second before releasing to maximize the effect of the exercise.
