Is a 225 lb barbell row good?

[TeenageBuilder]

you're supposed to be bent over, just so you know.

[Lanny14]

What the fu**?

Those are legit shrugs.

youre an idiot if you think theyre shrugs, im pulling the bar into my core, not up, im bent forward, not standing straight, and im flexing my back during the lift, not my traps. go learn what shrugs are.

[xxyxx]

go learn what bb rows are. ditch the ego, drop the weight.

[Bignik92]

impressive and good to see you do them yates style he recommends them over bent parallell and he has the bets back in the business so heed is advice.


Congratz.

[amnotjokin]

form looks a little sloppy...still impressive weight.

[SteezyChr]

This.

That is not a Barbell Row.

[EthanHun]

Squat. Your row did not happen.


Strong E-stats

[peterholbrook]

wow, I bet you'd probably struggle to row 135 if you did them properly

[watevadoo]

lawl at the 225 lb shrugs

this may help explain the barbell row =)

[Lanny14]

lol at everyone telling me i do them wrong, what is wrong with my form? im not bent over enough, but i hardly used any momentum until my fifth rep.

[Andyg37]

let's compare your rows:



with real rows:






conclusion: strong dumbass is dumbass




p.s. that's not even 45 degrees like you say it is. those constitute as shrugs.

You are about as smart as the kid posting the vids. What you posted are called pendlay rows, what he posted are Yates rows

thats a pendlay row, "dumbass"

[musicianman]

Depends on your angle.

I change mine up a lot. I can do 155x8 or so with my torso nearly parallel to the ground, and the bar touching below my chest at the top. I can also do 185x6 with my torso more upright (45˚ or so).

It all depends.

doesnt matter if u use momentum or not, ur not bent over to start with.

[gurngast]

i think u can go abit lower, but yes its yates row - i do it too

[Lanny14]

doesnt matter if u use momentum or not, ur not bent over to start with.

ok , lets see you do a yates row with that much weight.

[SteezyChr]

i dont do barbell rows and u might wanna edit ur sig now

[JC_Strongman]

When I do Yates rows I do them more bent than OP, but what was posted as a "proper" row is a Pendlay row.

[WinterWoIf]

I do Pendlay, underhand, and overhand about 225 x 15 easy. Your rows suck bro.

[whitesox3223]

LOL no not really. sorry brah. edit... def not a 45 degree angle

Yea, what you're doing isn't "bad". The problem with rows are that depending how you do them, there can be huge differences in what weight you use

you proud, *******?

[Bon]

Let your arms drop a little lower, get more ROM.
Don't "jerk" the weight up at the top of the rep. You are basically shrugging the weight once it's near the top of your quad. You want to pull back, not upward.

i knew this thread would deliver.

[CoryATL16]

lower the weight. fix the form. good to go.

[Vizag_Lifter]

If you can feel your back working, then, its a row.

Good Job OP.

[mja33]

First off, this thread is useless, you attention whore. Clearly 225 barbell row is good.
Second off, you DONT barbell row 230, your form sucks...

Please leave your ego at the door, and stop being cocky. And please stop being so stubborn, everyone has told you your form sucks at 230, but apparently to you its great, besides the "momentum" on your 5th rep.

age:14,

go away, the grown ups are talking.
even for a yate's row, 230 is good for a 15 year old.

[cheesecake0]

im at about a 45 degree angle

lol man that is not a Barbell row, that is like a 1/5 of a upright row.

your arms are like moving a couple of inches

[jmt92]

yes it is a proper yates row.Just stop doing that little jerking thing at the end.

as for what everyone is referring to as proper form, that is a pendley row.They work different parts of the back.But OP seems to be getting butt hurt over an internet forum and the rest seem like they are mad that OIP knows something they dont.

I love this section almost as much as the misc sometimes.
