Seated cable rows question

**Tommy Gunn** · 08-31-2005, 07:28 PM

Is there any difference really between close grip seated cable rows and wide grip seated cable rows, in terms of the muscles they work? Does one work a different bodypart than the other or do they pretty much work the same?

the close grip will work the arms and lats more and the wide grip will work the rear delts and back more

Also, if you want to see what areas may be worked by a specific movement - try doing that movement while looking in the mirror. Ain't nuttin fancy - but you'll see what muscle group is actually working.
