BARBELL ROW APPRECIATION THREAD

I know, I don't know why people keep comparing the two. Just do both.

nah fuck barbell rows. high rep cable rows, high rep pulldowns, and low rep weighted chins

barbell rows are on a higher tier than all those faggot accessory exercises

I do Pendlays but only because I started out on SL

Can somebody redpill me on the best rows? I tried dumbell rows but the form felt incredibly awkward

r*ddit get out

Pendlays are fucking garbage.

I do pendlays too. I don't know I feel like with normal rows my grip and low back gets tired before my lats. Also I feel the posture in pendlays translates better to deadlifts.

bloat rows are the best

Are you fucking stupid or something, if anything reddit hates Mark and SS more than this board.

t-bar rows

trash

Rows are for cucks
T bars are for Chads!

>t bar rows aren't rows

see

Gynodino is a fucking fraud that gives shit advice.

From best to worst

>Chest supported tbar rows with a neutral grip
>regular tbar
>db rows
>"normal" rows with pronated grip
>cable rows
>pendlay rows
>yates rows

>tfw no tall barbell rowing brappy gf

Now that is an injury waiting to happen.

other way around, from best to worst:
>seal rows
>regular BB rows
>pendlay rows
>cailler woolam style cheat rows
>db rows
>other meme BB tbar shit

the fuck was that?

t. weak faggot cucks who can't row for shit

Bent over row and dumbell rows are my favorites, atleast twice a week. Lats and Rhomb doms are fucking great.

the guy in light green is doing the cia pose lol

no, that was just such poor form

rippetoe is a faggot, no idea why he's caught on in the internet lifting communities so much. good marketing i guess

God what a pathetic bunch of people
America really is fucked lol

it is, they are the most delusional on the planet too

maybe you should try out pendlay rows

If this isn't right, what kind of form are we supposed to use for rows?

i'm gonna start doing these, i just wanted to git decent with other lifts first since im new and dont wanna wrench my back. i did my first sets of deadlifts the other day and started with 2pl8s and then added 50lbs and i feel it in my back but not a bad feel, its a very good feel so i think i can do rows without worrying about it. im sure i can deadlift 3 plates next time and i'm gonna just start with 1 plate rows. what is the equivalent of 1/2/3/4 for barbell rows?

>people leaning on the equipment
FUCKING REEEEEE!

2plate row without excessive cheat

T. Rows 2.5 and cheats like motherfucker

Try and stop me

ty user

I don't think you should be too strict on barbell rows, it's one of those overload exercises IMO.
Did a shitton of barbell rows followed by snatch grip deadlifts afterwards, truly a pissening back workout and the DOMS feels great

tf why is she balding?
also lol at the people in the back

thats why rippetoe still has tendonitis ON BOTH arms.cuz he's a retard who promotes shit form.

I just started doing them as a superset with flat bench and I'm loving the pump.

do them slow and controlled. throwing them up to your chest then letting them drop not only doesn't make for good exercise, it's also a one way train ticket to snap city.

What back angle should be used? Why shouldn't we be explosive with bent over rows?
I've been doing em explosively Schwarzenegger style and got up to 195 lbs for reps in a short amount of time. I feel my lats being worked, but I'm concerned I'm doing something wrong because of how quick the progression has been

Forgot to upload pic

>levering
>Chad
pick one

>What back angle should be used?
different for different targeted muscles

I never feel DOMS from a barbell row??

It just fries my CNS for a few days even if I lower the weight and do tons of reps i can't feel those muscles/mind connect and tense up correctly. I have better luck with all sorts of pull machines.
I can feel deadlifts work though and my form seems fine

you mongs got trolled. the rip webm is from him doing a seminar on the row, where he has the qt do an example of the traditional gym row, to discuss the consequences of loose form. this is a fakenews clip meant to rustle jimmies. I'm not going to give you all any free (You)s but she very strictly rowed 185 later on. if a girl pendlay rowing 185 isn't impressive get your head out of your ass. He just teaches a supinated pendlay.

This guy knows what's up

Seems appropriate, should help with back rounding

yates row > bent over row

Started doing pendlay rows with pauses between reps, back started growing after that. I guess that's because when I didn't pause I would compensate with my shoulders and hips after some reps

Also if you diddly 3pl8 stick to around 1pl8 rows, maybe little bit more
Its easier to snap on rows, requires perfect bracing and breathing pattern

weighted pull ups >

what if I don't do conventional deadlifts and row 3pl8?

If back angle effects the lift, how do Yates Rows differ from bent over barbell rows?

My upper back is weak and holding back my benchpress, will these help with that?

>strongest deadlifter in the world advocates doing heavy as fuck barbell rows
>guy whose never accomplished anything noteworthy in competition says otherwise

I wonder who I should listen to

How much you deadlift, squat and back extensions? Probably weak core/posterior chain and poor bracing

>guy whose never accomplished anything noteworthy in competition says otherwise

That man? Albert Einstein

What does that incompetent fraud have to do with anything.

>einstein
>incompetent
>fraud

Pick one (you get ignorance for free)

ye

wtf Rippletoe is Einstein?

youtu.be/I0uhDZ06hrQ

this doesn't apply to me, I've deadlifted 500 and get to have my own opinion

Gynodino's advice is shitty as fuck, as always.

This is Mehdi-level retardation

Why dont you want to pull 900lbs?

How to both tear your bicep and low back with just one exercise

>thinking cailer's pull has anything to do with his meme row variation and not the fact that he can scratch his knees without bending over

lad

Ed Coan recommends them too, but sure go on

>barbell rows better than weighted pull ups/chins

How's your new years resolution going?

what's the best barbell row for a novice and what can i do to protect my lower back?

wear a belt and keep a good posture

>coaching for people who can't even bend over
lmao why even bother

how fat and unathletic are you

Cheating t bar rows brah

How do I do these without triggering my hernia every time

Do rows need to be POWERFUL?
Can you just pick the bar up and drop it, or does it have to be rammed into your belly with POWER?

Answer this man please
I need to know too

I do bb rows with decent weight compared to my other lifts but I don't really feel them working anything.
My legs are funnily what ends up most tired after, from holding that position.

I like the t-bar row

>R O W S
>O
>W
>S

It needs to touch your gut, and it's almost impossible to do without it being explosive. Then you just drop it.

Not quite pendlay but I go near-horizontal.

I don't get t-bar rows, seems like an easy way to smash yourself in the nuts, otherwise it's just limiting your range of motion. Why? Meme

yates row = barbell row

yates rows with snatch grip are GOAT

broder

That's called high pull lmao

i meant to say semi-snatch grip. really overloads the upper back well.

Try high pulls dude, you might like them

Beautiful mate

If you are gonna do them like that might as well do rack pulls with +200lbs weight though?

Chest supported rows are unironically goat
