Seated Cable Row
A good seated cable row is not just pulling the handle into your torso. Keep the trunk stable, let the shoulder blades move, and keep the elbows on a repeatable path.

Start from a real stretch overhead, let the shoulder blades rise naturally, then drive the elbows down and toward the sides without turning the pull into an arm exercise.
