Ring Typewriter Row

A horizontal pulling variation where you row side to side in a typewriter motion. Typically performed at an incline, building horizontal pulling strength and unilateral back development.

Instructions

1. Set the rings at an appropriate height and assume a horizontal body position facing the rings.
2. Grip the rings and pull your chest toward one ring in a rowing motion.
3. Lower yourself back toward the starting position slightly.
4. Shift laterally and row your chest toward the opposite ring.
5. Continue alternating sides in a controlled typewriter pattern.
6. Maintain a straight body line throughout the movement.
7. Complete all prescribed repetitions.

Tips

• Adjust ring height to match your current strength level.
• Keep your body straight—avoid hip sag or rotation.
• This movement builds unilateral pulling strength effectively.
• Control the lateral movement for proper muscle engagement.
• Focus on pulling with your back rather than purely with your arms.
