what most consider not to be a back muscle at all. Sure, it hits your
lats and rhomboids to some extent, but it is primarily responsible for
working your mid and lower trapezius muscle (or traps).
Think of your trapezius muscles like ice bergs, what you can see
sticking out the top is not the majority of the muscle, if you look at
the overall anatomical structure of this muscle you’ll see that it
extends down your inner back to your lower back (the T12 thoracic
process of the spine). Although this muscle is important for
stabilization, and it supports your overall strength, targeting it won’t
put seated cable rows in the top spot for back development.
