- How to do the Barbell Row
- Approach the bar like you would in a deadlift

- Get hips out of the way of the barbell, lower the barbell down to right below the knees
- Brace your core and align elbows, shoulders, and wrists
- Pull up in a straight line and make contact with wherever your torso length is
- Do not pull it up too high, just a straight line
- Make sure to put shoulders all the way back and squeeze
- 2 Second Concentric, 2 Second Squeeze, 2 Second Eccentric
- Extra Details
- Pick whatever row feels the most natural for you
- Elbow Placement
- We cannot have internal rotation of elbows, so keep elbows back and pull so shoulders can fully retract
- Is it common to feel this exercise in muscles besides the lats?
- You can sometimes feel it in the low back and the bicep/forearm.
- If this happens, regress the weight and make sure you feel it in your lats
- If you can’t do that with lower weight revert to cable rows, t-bar row, other rows
- How to incorporate the Barbell Row into your program
- You can train this exercise heavy and do 1-5 reps.
- If you want to train for hypertrophy do 8-12 reps with 2-2-2 up hold down.
- If you want to train for better posture incorporate 15-20 reps
