Primary: Back, Arms (erector spinae, latissimus, bizeps brachii)
Secondary: Shoulder (deltoideus, rhomboideus)
This back-exercise trains the latissimus, which forms the contour of the back very well. Changes in the inclination angle automatically change the stress of the muscles. Furthermore, the upper back and the shoulder area get trained.
The following figures illustrate the exercise High-Row:
