Ski Ergometer

Muscles involved

When you stand in front of the Ski Ergometer, the secret isn't sprinting from the very first pull, but building a rhythm you can actually maintain. This machine allows you to work through a fluid full-body motion where your back, quadriceps, and triceps coordinate their force on every downward stroke. To progress steadily without losing proper technique, start by pacing yourself and adjusting the resistance on this leverage machine. Focus on keeping your core stable as you initiate the pull with your upper body and finish by driving down through your legs. As your stamina improves over time, you can gradually increase the intensity without compromising your form, helping you build conditioning and power efficiently.

How to do it

1. Stand facing the rowing machine with feet shoulder-width apart. 2. Grip the cable with your arms extended upward. 3. Pull the cable downward with your torso slightly bent. 4. Return to the starting position and repeat.
