In adding the old school barbell row into my program for one of my back days, I found even with cerebral palsy it was a fantastic exercise for strengthening the entire back but the lower back particularly. This is very helpful since we usually have weak backs. Yes, there is a higher risk of injury but the exercize is very scalable.

Its been 8 months I been doing this as my Go to Compound Free Weight Back Exercise and man it everytimes gives the feeling of knowing that this is Returning the Hard Work" kind of vibe. I mean absolutely pays off. As its resulting yeilds are promosing so do the efforts it ask one. Initially one Manageble weights its easier to perform but as one progresses with weight the stress on Core is amazing it forces to be balanced while performing each rep at best with controlled range of motion. But believe once you perform the set the Burn will immediately tell you "its Worth every rep" .

Surprisingly he didn't mention the underhand barbell row which is superior to all. With an underhand grip you work the mid and lower lats and thickness simultaneously and depending on the angle you can hit different parts of the lat. I don't dead lift because of back issues but people think I do because my lower back is so thick and I attribute it to bent over barbell row with underhand grip rowing towards my belly button to hit the lower back muscles.
@moneytimesfifteen4 ай бұрын
I switched from a conventional stance to a semi sumo stance while rowing and they immediately started working everything I wanted to work. The bar path is straighter and it's not limited by the lower back isometric. I feel like I'm actually getting the benefits of rows that people have been talking about since I started lifting

If u are 40+ u have to be careful doing barbell rows if u get injured it takes u so much longer to heal if u do at all. Back injuries sometimes never truly heal depending on what damage/injury u have. I do incline and lying flat supported dumbbell row and have gotten solid gains. So do what works for you but caution should be given with barbell rows and u need to make sure ur technique is on par to avoid injury.
@patrickjulius73524 ай бұрын
smart comment. I feel the same in my upper 30s. The only reason I even consider it is because the heavier weights get on those chest supported rows, the more they hurt my sternum. so far it seems like the lying flat seal rows hurt LESS than the incline.

I usually stand on a 45 to get even more stretch of the Upper back. And do it pendley row style, rowing the bar to the waist. If I want to hit more upper back I row to the upper abdominals/lower pec.. it’s not that complicated s🤷♂️

I've always thought the Yates row was made with a supine grip, or that's how I've always been doing it anyway. This and the ≈90° bent row are my two go-to barbell row variations (wich I also combine with other dumbell and machine variations). Never tried the dead-stop variation, but I'm curious, maybe one day I'll give it a try. Great content, as always.
@PeterKhatcherian4 ай бұрын
I should have specified in the video. Dorian started out with an underhand grip which is the original Yates row. He later advocated for an overhand grip as the reverse grip puts the bicep in a much more compromising position. Overhand is the safer option and imo just as beneficial

The Yates Row is certainly less lats and more traps and rear delt. Shoulder extension is limited and when the arm goes behind the body it's rear delt, there is a huge shrugging and retraction component too, I feel my middle traps being torn apart from the tension. The more you bend over the more lats you get. 6/10 Lat Movement 8/10 Rear Delt Movement 10/10 Traps The fact that you use more weight upright stretches the living F out of your traps
