The Upright Row

[MrTrickypaw]

I don't mean any disrespect to the guy in the video, but I just cannot find ANY other video that demonstrates an upright row, like this video. (see videos on right>). They ALL show (dumbbell,barbell etc) that your elbows have to go ABOVE the rod...:(

[Versohnung]

buy larger shirts, to tight bro, you look gay

[ahampton07]

when i do this exercise i normally do it with my hands closer together am i doing incorrect form by doing this?

[LuckynumberSlevin11]

What a disguting gym

[myhugelife]

@LuckynumberSlevin11

Not pink enough brah ?

[LuckynumberSlevin11]

@myhugelife Like a torture chamber. Prefer my gyms a bit nicer.

[ExforcesPT]

That's your traps ya pointed to m8 lol, close grip gets a better peak contraction use an E-Z bar to keep the wrists compfy!

[ExforcesPT]

It works mainly your medial delt and traps, also use an EZ-bar and its esier on the wrist an can be performed with the close grip to get a great peak contraction.

[balramstha2]

Hi hi! Have you ever tried intellectus 424 diet (search on google)? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my friend lost lots of weight with it.

[sniddles]

Fit to be an American? WTF is with the gay name?

[tony29051]

Thanks for this. For years I have being doing this the wrong way with the bar too high and the wrists bent. Thanks goodness for youtube Well done

[dferritto0530]

Ur neck and shoulder? Stfu you sound dumb it works your biceps amd forearm and a little shoulder...especially with ur grip dumbass

[MadManATA]

Shoulder and he touch his traps.... Hmmmm interesting ....

[Geschlechtsvolzieher]

I want a flat shoulder plus big ball deltroids not your triangle shoulder

[HermanHermes]

@Geschlechtsvolzieher why you want flat shoulders? If someone has flat shoulders he has no traps.

[Geschlechtsvolzieher]

@HermanHermes I dunno^^ it looks sexy^^

[HermanHermes]

@Geschlechtsvolzieher well, its also partially genetics based what type of shoulders do you have, but dont worry, the angle of your shoulders doesnt make you less or more sexy, trust me...if someone thinks youre sexy, its definitely because of your shoulders but because of something else

[tomkuiper547]

Eeeeeeehh! You stupid american this is wrong!

[pabitoz]

weightlifting is all about consistency, that is, going for a long time and being smart, not about how shitty and industrial the gym looks like. i prefer nice gyms with decent bitches but it doesn't mean that the gym in this video is not good and that it doesn't have good weight-lifters. grow the fuck up guys and thank the dude for showing the exercise.

[greyfoxau]

It looks very industrial , is it a gym or a car factory.

[M1thotyn]

I can break my wrists if I want to! Maybe I like bragging about lifting injuries, did ya ever think about that? Huh! *pokes instructors chest multiple times* huh? huh? Did you ever consider that? huh!?!?!

[latinkon3]

What you dont want to happan is your wrists to break, lol thats some good advice, i'll try not to!

[mg34skijerbataljon]

no fancy gyms are needes u just need two big buckets with cement and a steel pipe inside the dry cement...lol

[Spiwak003]

Can your gym afford a stereo?

[TheTruthHurtsYup]

This excercise has always been tough on my shoulders. But I do it a few times a week to build up my shoulders as I really do feel that its great for strengthening you rotator cuff. It pains me to see some guys at the gym doing really heavy weight and lifting the bar very high, they are just asking for a injury.

[Triple88a]

Sheesh the gym is empty.

[morpheusxnyc]

If you have ANY shoulder injury, rotator cuff issue or have ever had a separated/dislocated shoulder, etc you should NEVER EVER do this exercise.

[GEfootball11]

@morpheusxnyc

why is that? i had a 3rd degree separation in my right shoulder 2 years ago and i do this exercise all the time with no problem.

[morpheusxnyc]

@GEfootball11 - Hmm.. How old are you?

[tyciol]

I do prone rows for my rear delts and scapular retractors.

This is a 90 degree difference since we are upright.

Perhaps a good intermediary would be a 45 degree row, but not to the hip like with a yates row or whatever for lats, rather pulling the elbows high and back.

[SeanSkokComedy]

i want my wrists to break

[AdangerousRETARD]

i swear i saw you working at wallmart

[TimeToDwell]

is this where gym equipment goes to die? looks like a graveyard for all the unused equipment of the world. horrible gym.

[chocmintsify]

@TimeToDwell LOL you're funny :DD

[Thegthatkillsall]

america in population percentage is fatest i belive :S

[RustyIronloins]

This is one of the few vids that actually teaches the exercise the correct way. This guy did a great job of keeping the shoulder rotators out of the movement. The shoulder is too injury prone for all the crazy rotation that some instructors put into the top of the movement.

[midwestboxer]

" it helps work the neck and make the neck strong"....im sure you mean trapezius muscles.....please go read a book and go through a real certification program. Your clients are a rotator cuff injury waiting to happen.

[Testostrone250]

lol whos this jerk? he doesn't even know what the muscle is just behined the neck lol tit!

[Testostrone250]

lol whos this jerk?

[funnyfeet]

lol coarse i dont want my wrists to break

[neoh223]

fit to be an american? so if u aren't fit, then what are you exactly lool?

[itsjohnnyt]

@neoh223 if u arent fit to be an american ur just a lazy frick and should get up

[Greenacres88]

You have a great way of making things easy to understand. Thanks for the video!

[musardus]

i heard this exercise is blamed for shoulder injuries

[flooopy1]

This primarly works the traps...not the side delts. If you want to hit the side delts do lateral movments for shoulders.

[88glory]

This does work side delts in addition to traps. Sort of a compound movement.

[CCUn1versal]

This actually develops the traps quite nicely

[NekitGR]

i was told this exercise fucks up your rotator cuff

[Archangel2424]

@NekitGR, it can if you do too much weight or do not properly warm up your shoulders. correct form and extension is key too

[cli6065823]

@NekitGR yeah it does, if you feel the exercise is to akward then switch to another exercises.

[foppburgur]

the most depressing gym ive ever seen..

[slimjim561]

@foppburgur ditto

[bsadancer]

hahahahahahaha

[joepescifromcasino]

@foppburgur i knwo it looks like a fucking auto shop lol

[scotland1989able]

@foppburgur yeah i no!! gyms should b filled wiv clowns and magicians and a man 2 make balloon animals for ya if u want 1 wen ure leaving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ARom5000]

@foppburgur haha, so true. looks like something from a war movie.

[decimeROD]

@foppburgur U should come to my gym

[TheNaturalMVP]

@foppburgur

A gyms not about beauty, its about the equipment.

[foppburgur]

@TheNaturalMVP k.

[camdened123456]

@foppburgur ive seen 2 that are worse :P i've only been to two that aren't

[TheTruthHurtsYup]

@foppburgur a gym doesn't have to be glamorous and pretty, lol you must be a girlie girl or something. Me, I like to get to a gym and lift weights, I don't care if they are shiny or just bare metal.

[TheMindHeist]

@TheTruthHurtsYup he's saying it's depressing because it's empty you parasite

[TheTruthHurtsYup]

@TheMindHeist the gyms not empty dumbass, see all those things behind him? Those are workout things, like you would know anyways.

[InferiorThanYou]

@TheMindHeist Why is being empty compared to being depressed?

[dylanxfriends]

@TheTruthHurtsYup same with me, i dont give a crap

[foppburgur]

@TheTruthHurtsYup Wow, you sure are alpha! 

[visionimagify]

@foppburgur It's a man's gym, that's why. Serious people just go in there for a workout and get out. Not socialize and talk and shit.

[InferiorThanYou]

@visionimagify I wish there was one like that here. I go to 24 hour fitness and it's constantly filled with people talking about their weekends. Even some gold's gyms and powerhouse gyms are becoming more social aren't they?

[Slateroz]

@foppburgur Actually it looks like a proper lifter's gym. No flashy colors and dance music and step aerobic crap going on. Most people don't want a gym like the one above...but real lifters do.

[mentalshade]

@Slateroz i dont want that gym

[TheClashyyy]

@foppburgur lol dude......

[buzzbomb80]

Whether you use an easy-curl bar, or an Olympic bar, the key is control. Going past a 90 degree angle will put excess strain on the muscles, which will lead to injury.

[kftrainer]

thanks for the video I know I have been doing it wrong I will try your version

[AlexIsUber]

gym from hell lol

[PPL616]

looks like a ghetto gym

[urhunted]

i heared its better 4u when u do it with a curl bar

[Planetaryy]

That gym is massive.

[sunny123able1]

fit to be an american? surely everyone is fit to be an american, who have the highest obesity rate in the world

[mhadler]

@sunny123able1 This coming from a guy who lives in a country where dentistry is considered a luxury for the rich and famous....

[sacredgeometry]

that coming from a guy who lives in a country where health care is considered a luxury for the rich and famous....

[milesmuhldoon1]

@sunny123able1 believe everything the Left Wing news reports to you on, eh. lol!

[slipknotrulz67]

@sunny123able1 no they dont, america samoa in like africa or something is with 93&% of their population overweight.

[sunny123able1]

@slipknotrulz67 so your saying 1 state with a population of 65 000 makes a difference over the other 310 million fat asses living there?

[slipknotrulz67]

@sunny123able1 i agree, america is fat as fuck, but yeah, you get it, we're not THE fattest :)

[cannonballkid]

@sunny123able1 and yet England is the fattest country in Europe, sounds like you're in good company!

[sunny123able1]

@cannonballkid No the united kingdom is the fattest in europe but the united kingdom is made up of 4 countries, so go fuck yourself, France is the fattest in europe, douchebag

[cannonballkid]

@sunny123able1 lol you sound hungry!

[BBoyFury]

@sunny123able1 So you begin by saying "No the united kingdom is the fattest in europe" and finish by saying "France is the fattest in Europe." And btw, the UK is the fattest in Europe, and the fattest of the four countries that make up the UK is England, so cannonball is correct. Per capita, England has the highest obesity percentage in Europe.

[sunny123able1]

@BBoyFury if your talking in terms of percentage then scotland is fatter then england and second only to america, so go fuck yourself

[tyciol]

@sunny123able1 Bro are you insulting Wade Barrett and Drew McIntyre?

[tyciol]

@sunny123able1 Bro are you insulting Wade Barrett and Drew McIntyre?

[RheumaticNinja]

@sunny123able1 you mad? :)

[turdbutt89]

@sunny123able1 it's fittobeanamerican, I think it's "Fitto Bean American." His name is Fitto Bean, and he's an American.

[sunny123able1]

@turdbutt89 you dont seem to have any common sense, so just visit the site and youll find out thats not true

[turdbutt89]

@sunny123able1 I was totally being serious

[sunny123able1]

@turdbutt89 i cant hear you so i cant tell if your being sarcastic or genuinely retarded

[manimaduck]

@sunny123able1 You can call americans fat but we still have the best athletes.

[sunny123able1]

@manimaduck really? who won the last olympics, i think youl find china has the best athletes XD

[manimaduck]

@sunny123able1 Compare the last Summer and Winter Olympics and America wins the medal counts 147-111...And the two before that 128-74...Between those Olympics America has 89 Gold Medals, 101 Silvers, 85 Bronzes. The Chinese had 90 Gold Medals, 44 Silvers, and 51 Bronzes... That means China has 1 more Gold, 57 less silvers and 34 less bronzes. So yes America still has the best athletes.

[sunny123able1]

@manimaduck i love trolling, look how angry you got with that comment, look at how you took time to go onto wikipedia, get the stats and come back to this youtube page, well buddy truth is i dont give a shit, il call americans fat as much as i want, il even call you ugly, as long as it makes doucehbags like you sitting at home on the computer angry. Now im gonna go ahead and guess that your a fat ugly douchebag who sits at home all day, jacking off and arguing over the internet about shit XD

[manimaduck]

@sunny123able1 A) you cant see how angry i got...im not angry at all...even if i am you cant prove it B) I like looking up anything on sports... Im a sports junkie...C) You can guess all you want and then once youre done guessing you can go to my page and see im not D) I hope youre moms uterus explodes

[sunny123able1]

@manimaduck well you replied straight away, and you insulted me at the end so based on that i believe i made you angry. Now for me to further troll. ALL AMERICANS I REPEAT ALL AMERICANS ARE FAT UGLY DOUCHEBAGS LIKE THIS UNGLY DUCK FUCKING CUNT

[manimaduck]

@sunny123able1 So yes America still has the best athletes is an insult??? I'm sorry you are so sensitive. What does UNGLY mean?? Anyways I'm rubber you're glue whatever you say bounces of me and sticks you.

[sunny123able1]

@manimaduck your rubber im glue, i may suck but you swallow too

[manimaduck]

@sunny123able1 So you replied straight away too now...does that mean you are angry?? Anyways as clever as that little jingle you said was, it doesnt make sense in the fact that rubber doesnt swallow, glue doesnt suck, and you admit to sucking?

[sunny123able1]

@manimaduck YES YES AND YES XD

[manimaduck]

@sunny123able1 I'm gonna go punch a midget in the face....even if it is racist.

[tiddyd]

@sunny123able1

sorry but us Australians have taken that title ;)

[volimcevape]

All of you are fat e-tards. He's doing it correctly. Many noobs hurt their shoulders by going too high. there is no need to go too high.

[maximuscle295]
