    When to avoid this exercise

  • Elastic upward rows with your foot on a step can be a beneficial exercise for strengthening your upper back and arms. However, there are certain situations where you should avoid this exercise to prevent injury or discomfort.Firstly, if you have any existing injuries or pain in your shoulders, upper back, or arms, it is best to avoid this exercise. The added resistance from the elastic band and the position of your foot on the step can put extra strain on these areas and exacerbate any existing issues.Additionally, if you have any balance or stability issues, it is not recommended to perform this exercise. The elevated position of your foot on the step can make it difficult to maintain proper form and balance, increasing the risk of injury.It is also important to avoid this exercise if you are pregnant or have recently given birth. The added strain on your abdominal muscles and pelvic floor can be harmful during this time.Lastly, if you are new to exercise or have not performed this exercise before, it is best to start with a lower resistance band and gradually increase as you build strength and proper form. This will help prevent overexertion and potential injury.In summary, while elastic upward rows with your foot on a step can be a beneficial exercise, it is important to avoid it if you have any existing injuries, balance or stability issues, are pregnant or postpartum, or are new to exercise. Always listen to your body and consult with a medical professional before starting any new exercise routine.
