Sculpt a strong back by nailing the bent over row

By Miranda Larbi

4 years ago

Welcome to our weekly Move of the Week series. Every Monday, we’ll be sharing with you one of our favourite exercises – how to do them, what muscles they work and why they should be a regular part of your workout regime. This week: bent over row.

A “row” is a movement that simply describes drawing the arms toward and away the body. An upright row, for example, involves moving a weight up the centre of the body towards the collarbone. A renegade row involves bringing weights towards your body while in a plank position.

The bent-over row is arguably the simplest form of rowing you can do at home, and one that best targets those vital back muscles.
