Bent Knee Close Grip Rows Technique Instructions
Technique – Start by positioning yourself over a barbell, you will only be using one end of the barbell. Have you feet around shoulder width apart, bend your knees and keep your back straight. Grip the bar right behind the weight placing one hand underneath the other. When ready stand up with the bar making sure that your stance and back remain strong and solid. Exhale as you pull the barbell into your abs muscles squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top of the motion. Inhale as you return the barbell back to starting position in a slow, controlled manner but do not allow your arms to fully lock out as this will maintain pressure on the back muscles and increase the overall benefits of the exercise.
