Bored of the Dumbbell Row? Check out this row for a change....

[2020Wellness]

Check out this row, which is an excellent rowing movement for multiple reasons. Here are two of those reasons:

1. By standing in front of the plates, the plates on the barbell do not run into your torso as with some other row variations, allowing for a fuller ROM.

2. The only path the bar can take is one that forces you into proper form. You are required to pull up and back with the elbow, hammering the lats by nature. This is not the case with other similar 'single arm barbell' row variations.

My back is piss-weak and my mind-muscle connection with it is even weaker, so this should be something interesting to try, thanks.

^^^^ Legit good exercise.

Great exercise for those having problem to imagine how to work their back instead of biceps. Also use smaller weight plate for bigger range of motion or simply stand on some platform.

Great advice on how to increase the rom. Thanks for adding to the conversation.

Will rep everyone on recharge. And ya, I love this variation. For those wondering, I have another full size plate on the other end of the barbell, but any anchor method should work. Another plate just works very well and is quick and easy.

I just hit this one again for my Press/Pull day. I'm sure I'll see some others in my gym giving this a shot in the next few weeks. People were checking out the situation.

[rlundregan]

Repped--I was just looking for another way to do rows--I am maxing out my weight stack on my lat pulldown, it won't be long before I max out my 120 lb DB's for 1 arm rows, and I can't do BB Rows because of a back issue. This is a great solution that won't require any new equipment.

[truth223]

Il have to try this OP. Thanks for posting. Repped.

[mdb1986]

It seems so simple and looks like it makes sense. Why have I never seen this done before. Looking forward to giving this a go.

[Dammn]

Fuaarrk mirin exercises, was looking for something like this, adding this to my routine so thanks and repped

[Mcfreako]

Good stuff bro. Never did these standing in front of the plates like that. I may give it a try this week

[Squid24]

Repped - Wow, good timing for me to check out this thread have back tomorrow. Looks like a good one to fit into my program...thanks

[notdisappoint]

I can't believe I haven't thought about that before. It's pretty simple, and very effective!

Tried it today, and it pretty much forces your lat to do the work instead of your biceps. It even took out some of the momentum that can happen from time to time. Good exercises, repped.

Let me know how it goes.

Just repped more of you guys, but will check back and rep on recharge tomorrow.

It's one of the assembly lat exercises as I do with my landmine bar when I switch from using a dumbbell.

When you said 'misc day,' I immediately thought you had a designated day for the misc forum, lmao.

You win the internet. It's been a long time since I've seen anything on the internet worth anything.

Loading up oly dumbbells gets very old very fast.
