valina [46]

While I don't know the exact choices, if any, the most susceptible answer would be because the patient is going through a lot of stress, and on top of the patients unhealthy habits, is unable to handle the stress in a positive, or healthy way, so the patients body is reacting in the way it is.

A client is performing a standing cable row with her shoulders elevated. What cue should be used to correct her form?
nalin [4]

Answer:

This is an exercise conducted to develop strength. It is  practise by standing few inches from the machine, knees slightly bent,and repeatedly taking the weight of low pulley cable, by pulling a single handle with one arm up to the clavicle.

The single handle should be well  dragged towards the body,  lowering the scapualr ;so that the effect  of the pull contacts  the latissimus dorsi of the back,the gluteus maximum of the gluteal region, the trapezius, and the harmstrings(bicept femoris,semimembranisous) of the upper leg. It specifically reccomemded for developin the muscels of the back( latissimus dorsi).

it is a compound exercise  where  enough resistance should be applied so that  scapular depression and retraction is avoided for maximum muscular contraction.Therefore in this question the subject should  depress her scapular so that  the pull could be above the scapular outwards  for   enough resistance to be  applied  for contractions of trapezius and rhomboids( the scapular retractors).
