The rowing machine is one of the most effective when looking to raise the heart rate and work different muscles of the body, yet it is one of the least used. For all those who are looking to get started in its practice or who usually use it, here is a list of common mistakes when using rowing machine<\/strong> that it is advisable to know and avoid.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Avoid these errors on the rowing machine:<\/h2><\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Raise the elbows and lift them away from the torso<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Raise your elbows and pull them away from your torso when pulling on the pulley, will cause them to focus the effort on other unwanted muscle groups. Therefore, try not to open your armpits too wide and relax your shoulders so that your hands do not come up to near your chin, but instead are at stomach level.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Excessive wrist flexion<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Flexing the wrists excessively when pulling will be stressing the flexors of the hand, which may cause unwanted discomfort or even injury. The ideal is to hold the pulley with both hands, using all the fingers, and relax the wrists, without flexing or extending them rigidly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Tilting the back too far <\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Tilt your back too far when pulling can cause that your hands will be directed to your chin and you will be taking effort away from the muscles that you really want to work. It is best to keep your back straight and even if you lean back a little, you should try to do so as little as possible, as in this way, you will work in a controlled manner.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Extend legs before pulling<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Extending the legs before pulling the pulley or bending the knees before starting the return to the initial position, generate an uncoordinated movement and can damage the lumbar area. It is recommended to perform a simultaneous movement of legs and arms to exercise safely and effectively on the rowing machine.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>Extending the knees or locking them<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Extending the knees or locking them can cause injuries with repetitive hyperextension of the joint, therefore, it is advisable to always maintain a slight flexion, even though the legs should be stretched when pulling and bringing it towards the trunk.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

There are many frequent errors when using rowing machines, so it is recommended to know them and take them into account in order not to reproduce them when exercising on this very effective cardio machine.<\/p>\n<\/div>
