What is the Smith Machine Upright Rows?

The Smith Machine Upright Rows is a compound exercise that primarily targets the trapezius and shoulder muscles. It's ideal for beginners due to its guided path and for more experienced athletes looking to isolate and maximize muscle contraction safely.

  2. Grab the bar of the Smith machine with an overhand grip (palms facing down), hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
  3. Pull the bar upward, keeping your elbows pointing out to the sides.
  4. Bring the bar up to chin level or slightly below, keeping your shoulders down and back muscles engaged.
  5. Pause at the top of the movement, then lower the bar back down in a controlled manner to the starting position.
