Pendlay is where it's at.

I vote pendlay, but DB row is a very close 2nd.

how strict do you go for the db rows?

 

[Big A]

Hmmm, never tried pendlay, don't really know why, im gonna do those on Wednesday. So u have u back pretty close to parallel with the floor and u want the weight to go dead with every rep?? Kind set up if u were going to do a deadlift but then row?

I voted bent over (barbell) rows, but after reading about the pendlay rows, I'm going to give them a try...and I have a feeling I might change my opinion once I give them a fair shot for awhile.

one arm dumbell rows...
fairly strict, but not perfect...

 

[ExtraMile]

All the people voting for bent over bb rows... how far do you usually bend over?

 

[Tblock1]

A little past 45 degrees on my heavier sets, just above parallel for most.

Its the only way to fly.

I also have pretty much stopped using regular bars except for squats. Everything else is done on an axle bar.

It must be pretty neat to have your name attached to an exercise

Alcatraz rows...I like the sound of that!

For several years I thought it was stupid and forbid anyone I knew to use that term. Now I am starting to think its ok, even a bit cool.

Bad lower back so I can bend over to do barbell rows and put the strain on it. DB rows for me. Im strict most of the time, Id be lying if I said I didnt twist with the last rep or two.

Barbell Rows are supposed to be king and they are great, but honestly I tend to find myself doing dumbell rows most of the time.

I've seen plenty of big backs built from mainly deadlifts and dumbell rows.

 

[Tblock1]

Yeah I used to be a big fan of barbell rows but I feel it's easier to go strict with db rows. However my school gym only goes to 100's so I may have to go back to barbell rows

 

[balancefighter]

I like db rows just because I feel like I am more strict but we only goto 110s and im hitting them for 12 and 14 reps. Might do some single arm cable rows

 

[C0LUMB0]

Incline DB rows .

 

[sparkant]
