The body row exercise is a great overall exercise for the chest, back and core muscles and you should use either a smith machine or stable weight rack to perform this exercise.
Steps :
1.) Start by lying under a bar so that it is aligned at mid chest level and your feet are positioned across a bench.
2.) While keeping your abs drawn tightly in and your back flat, use your arms and row your body up towards the bar until you start to feel a stretch in your chest.
3.) Hold this position for a count then slowly return back to the start in a controlled motion.
4.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
Tips :
1.) Make sure that the rack or the smith machine is stable before you perform the exercise.
