#2 Bent Over Row
The bent over row targets various back muscles including the latissimus dorsi muscle group and could be performed by both beginners and professional trainers. Not only that, this exercise is also very beneficial in improving the overall strength of the body.
The bent over row has quite a few variations and could be performed using a barbell or dumbbells.
Instructions:
Step 1: The initial position of the bent over row involves holding a barbell using a pronated grip with bent knees and a straight back. The barbell should be kept at around the knee level.
Step 2: Then, with a stationary torso, lift the barbell towards the hip with only arm movement. Pause for a moment and return to the initial position.
Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of repetitions.
Important Tip: Although a pronated grip is preferred, one could also work at it by facing the palms away from the body.
