Doing this dogshit movement kept both my back and rear delts in dyel prison for years
And yes the same applies to barbell rows too
If you actually care about looking good, do not do a single barbell/pendlay row

      This, I'm convinced barbell exercises are ego lifting perma injured morons that look indistinguishable from picrel nobody would ever guess you lift until a barbell dropped from the sky and challenged everyone in the room to a lift off. Stick with cables, dumbbells and iso machines

    How much can you row OP.

    You can row more than your bodyweight right?

        Why won't you tell us your lifts OP?
        Rows are a staple movement for the whole back

          Why

            Because they use basically the entirety of the back, trapezius, rhomboids, latissimus dorsi, rear deltoid, the muscles of the scapula, as well as the biceps, brachialis, and brachioradialis

        Now I get it. You don't like doing rows because you hate seeing how little weight you can lift. That's normal, get over it.

          my brother in christ those two exercises are going to recruit different muscle groups in the back. Of fricking course rows won't make your wings pop, they aren't supposed to.

          Just tell me why I should barbell row over different pull up variations or other isolation movements
          You still haven't explained why they're a 'staple' exercise aside from powershitter cope

        Pull-ups build back width, rows build depth. You want both

      More cope
      >b-but I've been doing them for years! How could this be!!
      Why are powershitters so against a cable or even dumbbell variation? Even a weighted pull up mogs these to oblivion
      You aren't building anything with your momentum rows, which is what they should call them.
      Cope more by telling me "YOU AREN'T ROWING ENOUGH" when you swing the barbell into your stomach and basically have 0 contraction

        Lol all these angry replies
        Once I stopped doing these and did more cable seated rows, dumbbell rows and even fricking bodyweight inverted rows my back got thicker and wider
        The most hilarious cope is the weight argument
        Again, we don't give a frick about how much weight you swing into your fat powershitter belly

          Are you having difficulty confronting that you have been wasting your time on these
          It should be pretty easy to tell that once you actually do the lift that it does minimal for back hypertrophy
          You wont gain a thing by bending your back over and swinging the bar into your fat stomach using mostly your arms

    I do rows on light Pull day when I don't deadlift. They're meh tier imo, I only feel my back engaged when I do other row variations.

    These are good exercise to improve your deadlift. If you don't deadlift there are better lifts.

    Most of my back work these days is bodyweight inverted rows chest supported and pull up variations, but I've found doing a set or two of heavy barbell rows really gets the blood flowing well.

    you're doing it wrong then. If you don't keep your wrists and elbows stacked, pull your hands back toward your hips, and use low enough weight to be able to make the movement about retracting your scaps and keeping your arms inactive, nothing is gonna happen for your back. So many moronic newbies load up as much weight on this shit as possible, use shit form, and are basically just giving themselves a bad biceps workout... just because you CAN row x weight doesn't mean you should or that it will work your back. Good form + high TUT > lurching around cheat-repping 225 lbs
