Some sources say that youre not supposed to have your knee on the bench with the one arm row, is there any truth to this or is it clickbait?

    It's just ridiculous unless the amount of weight you are using warrants needing more back stabilization. I can strictly barbell row 2pl8s for reps without needing baxk or chest support so it's always goofy seeing some guy pretending his 30lbs dumbell row is a Kroc row or some shit

      There's no reason to have your knee on the bench. Just put your hand on the end of the bench

      It's more comfortable.

    If you have both feet planted on the ground, you're less likely to turn your torso and thus use your upper back to move the weight and jerk it less.

    I really like the way John Meadows suggested doing them (both feet on the floor, bench between the legs). It feels more stable and less fatiguing on the lower back.

    I'm just bending over (with a straight back) and doing db rows with two dumbbells at the same time, in order to save time. Am I moronic?

      It's fine but you could consider doing them like this so that the support alleviates some of the requirements from the lower back

    That is a different variation of the movement. You can have our knee on if you want to or not. It does not matter. try them both out and do the one you prefer

    is a 45 kg one arm dumbbell row good? 3x8
    I've heard rows should be equivalent to your bench but I can do like 4 reps max with that weight on dumbbell bench

    Can someone tell me why I injured my fricking obliques doing this exercise? Still can’t do them again

      Because you're twisting your upper body and that's the job of the obliques? moron.

    newhomosexual here, so feel free to ignore me.

    it's clickbait with a little practical truth. In theory the exercise is fine, it's ok to have this position. In practice it's harder to do it correctly, your hips/back will wiggle or you go too low with your arm so you start to tilt. This fail is too tempting to do and most people WILL fail to do this correctly, especially when trying to do high reps or higher weights when you are at the end of the session.
