Barbell Bent-Over Row

How to do it

   Brace the torso, lengthen through the arms and set the shoulders away from the ears.

2. Execution

   Drive the elbows toward the hips or behind the torso, pause at peak contraction and return with control.

3. Avoid

   Avoid using momentum, shrugging or shortening the stretched position.

4. Overload
