Incline rows are an excellent bodyweight pulling exercise that targets your latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, middle traps, and rear deltoids. This scalable exercise serves as the perfect progression toward pull-ups while building functional pulling strength. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures optimal angle and perfect form.
