Started doing BB rows a few sessions ago and I've been having some elbow, shoulder, and lower back pain. Had watched several vids and thought I was doing pretty well to keep my core straight and braced, but this whole keeping the barbell over the mid-foot is a game changer for me. Kinda tweaked my lower back today doing them and after hearing this cue, I've realized that, yes. In my attempt to keep my back super flat, I've been pulling way out in front of my feet. Just now, playing with the posture and simulating the movements, I can totally feel how much better it is on all of the problem areas I've mentioned when the bar is over the mid-foot. Awesome possum!

@toni lindholm Its a row variation that does not load the spine like a traditional Barbell row. The only limitation to it is you have to stay very upright, so the back side of the trap bar does not hit your ass. Its an excellent variation as a finisher for the upper back but will not carry over to the deadlift like a traditional barbell row.

BRIAN, this is a back masterpiece video. So much good stuff here and I totally forgot about the inverted row thing. I want to hit my T-bar tonight with some new ideas (crap its not back night). THANK YOU/great ideas, great video and you walk tall with a big stick. I mean some of these other peoples videos are so strange like tie your shoe, do a jumping jack then a half row then spin around and complete the row (and they are weak, weaker than me as I am a big man with a small bench). You got your doctorate from the gym and it shows from your knowledge and brute strength. Sorry to go on but that advice about sitting back and lift the weight over your mid foot should be by law in every exercise book ever written. People are so scared of rowing mainly because they don't sit back and lift it as you describe.
@johnterpack39406 жыл бұрын
I've watched three or four of your videos now and I've learned at least one thing from each of them. Considering I've been lifting since I was twelve, 37 years ago, I'd say that's a decent testament to your grasp on the subject. I also like the faster pace of your talks. Too many guys seem to take forever to get around to the point. I'm just getting back into the game after something like a decade gathering dust. I subbed for the motivation. Now I'm going out to the garage to do some rows with the second bar I just bought to keep me from having to move the bar back and forth from the bench to the rack.

More like body Swahili. 3) Moobs do an excellent job cushioning the sternum against the impact of the bar. I've got a lot of ground to make up. But it feels so good slinging the iron again.

My current gym doesn't have a proper handle that would go around the bar for a t-bar row type of exercise, so I've been rowing one handedly for some while now. There's no proper objects to lean against in that spot and I can't bring anything in there because the space is so small, so I lean against my leg with my arm. It's one HARD movement this way but it really develops stabilization strength while being able to focus on the squeeze and hold for the back. The last sets feel like agony but it's working.

Squat Questions: 1) When squatting, I struggle terribly to hit depth, and almost always end up doing an ugly good morning on the way back up under heavy weight. After filming some reps, I've observed that near the bottom of the rep, I tend to push my hips BACK a tiny bit and my back lowers/bends just above the hips when I'm trying to reach proper depth (this is despite doing my best follow all your squat cues and frequently rewatching your videos for a good while now) Idk what kind of details would help you answer this, but I'm a very long/thin build with basically non-existent quads and naturally more of a dependence on glutes/hams for moving weight. Have messed around with stance quite a bit and find the most power for me is generated from a slightly wider than shoulder-width foot placement, with feet pointing out just past 1 and 11 o'clock. 2) When bracing hard for deads and squats, I occasionally feel a weird burning/tearing sensation in my core slightly above/at the belt line usually about 3" off center of belly. Not sure why, is there something I can do to warm up/stretch/protect these muscles? 3) my quads/hamstrings/supportive muscles down around my knees are ridiculously small. Almost no power/stability could possibly be being generated from there. In addition to doing more isolative movements that encourage stability such as barbell lunges/pistol squats - are there any unilateral movements or stance/technique adjustments i can use to get under heavier weight and target those muscles more for functional strength? Thanks for your work, have a nice day!

@Santiago Trestini all good, that was an obnoxiously long wall of text anyways haha. I like some of those mobility ideas! Given that I need to improve my form in general on squats (regardless of whatever specific issues are contributing towards my problems) i like the idea of light weight squat movements on off days. Thanks! On a side note in regards to the plank input - if i find out that I've been bracing wrong this whole time, despite watching and applying Brian's channel for years, I'm going to be really mad at myself hahaha Play a drinking game sometime on just about any Neversate video and take a shot everytime someone says "brace". You'll probably die.

Transitioning back into back squats I did 315 ass to grass clean without pushing my hips back to use my back to finish the exercise. Some other things that have helped me was dynamic stretching for the hamstrings and hip flexors etc. Some single leg, leg presses slow reps with emphasize on the eccentric part of the exercise . Stiff legged or Romanian deadlifts to strengthen my hamstrings as well.

The only difference is I stand on some mats creating a deficit so at the bottom of the row, the weights never touch the floor and the tension stays on the muscle.

It's really nice to see that this video has 800+ likes. We could all use some more back thickness, so thanks. Oh hey, what squat variation would work the lock out portion of the lift? Totally dumb, I know, but in your 4horsemen program, certain days are meant to work a certain portion of a lift. I have bench and deads covered, but I'm kinda stumped with squats.

Snatch grip high pull is the best for upper back. Check out Olympic lifters upper back

Upper back has tons of muscle groups. There's never a "best lift" for any muscle group anyways. It's about the best lift, at the best time in your life and program, for your goals.

Damn. I'm doing Dark horse now. I've been using the Dead Row all this time. Next run I'll use different variations based on the intensity of the day. Thanks.

Strongest part of your grips is that tendon in your ring finger, ask Jeff Cavalier, so when you get great positioning, you get better form, and if your elbow leads like it should, in that exercise, following the fibers it's in line with the rhomboids, esp if you already have your shoulder girdle engaged ;) great video as always Brian!

What's the reason you generally prefer (concluding from your videos) bent over rows over deadstop barbell rows? What other hip hinging exercise do you do per week and over how many days per week do you spread these exercises? Cheers

Petar Pribetić His exercise selection is dependent on his goal. Dead rows build more explosiveness and power. Bent over rows are traditionally used for strength & hypertrophy.
