Which sequence begins with Latissimus Row while seated facing the pulleys?

• A. Spine Stabilization Series II
• B. Spine Stabilization Series I
• C. Ribcage Stabilization Series
• D. Back Extension Series

Answer: (B)

The idea being tested is how the sequences are arranged to build stability first. Latissimus Row performed seated facing the pulleys is a pulling move that activates the shoulder blades and upper back while keeping the spine and core steady. In the Spine Stabilization Series I, the progression is designed to open with an exercise that trains posterior-chain engagement and proper posture, so you establish a solid stabilization pattern before moving on to more advanced or isolated ribcage or extension work. Starting with Latissimus Row helps cue scapular control, lat engagement, and a neutral spine right from the start, setting up the rest of the sequence for safe, effective progression. The other series focus more on ribcage control, pure back extensions, or a different stabilization progression, so they don’t typically begin with this lat row setup.
