Bent-over row
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A bent-over row is a weight training exercise.
To perform this, the exerciser supports themself on a workout bench with one knee and one hand. With the other hand they lift a dumbbell from the floor to their side, until their upper arm is just beyond horizontal or at the height of their back. This is then lowered until their arm is extended and shoulder stretched forward.
A variation of this exercise can be performed using a barbell, by bending forward and pulling the barbell towards the upper waist.
Another variation would be doing the motion with straight arms in a semi-lock out position , this is done to decrease the leverage and isolate the latissimus dorsi more.
