Is a 225 lb barbell row good?

[Lanny14]

I just hit 225 lbsx5 last week, hopefully 230lbs x5 this week. Is this considered good for barbell rows?

[CajunPballer]

No, that's light weight.

Will need vids to evaluate. I've seen kids who say that have "good form" swinging their bodies up as if they're doing power cleans.

I'm just saying the majority of kids think they're not retarded and that they're using good form. You may or may not be one of those kids - vids would help us to see if you know what you're doing.

225 barbell row with strict form = good
225 barbell form with bad form = mediocre or bad.

i actually wasnt sure, i dont know most of other teen lifters stats other than my workout partners and people in the rippetoess sticky

[adamlazure]

I'd say it's really good man.

I don't weigh near much as you ...

So I may not be the best judge in strength, but I've been lifting for awhile and I do around 170-175 pounds.

[BredFromFire]

its real easy to cheat on bb rows but yeah thats really impressive.

[Lanny14]

I realize the form got sloppy on the end of my fourth rep and i had to use momentum on my fifth rep. On my first lift, V grip pulldowns, I pulled a muscle in my middle back. Nonetheless, I finished my workout and did what I said I could.

edit: perpendicular.

silly me getting my geom terms mixed up

[Lanny14]
