How to Perform the Bent Over Row

[itsmen8]

I thought this was a "bent Over" Row. Where the fuck is the bending over? Lame!

[117drummer]

worst. form. ever.

[xuragu]

Worst form i ever saw lol!!!!

[MetaIhead89]

no wonder the form is bad, Borat is teaching it!!!

[E6DOG]

shrugs

[RSixBoy]

Take thjis fucking video off, this is the worst fucking bent over rows I have ever seen up to date. Get th eFUCK out

[ViolatedCunt]

dat dere brah

[ysndjr4]

I've got to be honest, I've only been working out two years but this seriously looks wrong to me. It looks very awkward and WAY to upright. Please do a new video. You're going to wrongly influence people and possibly cause injury.

[Actraiser1]

I cringe just thinking of some poor kid watching this video and actually thinking this is how it's done. Seriously, that's ridiculous form..

[DarkDaysAreHere]

No.... just no...

[batres33]

get this shit off before someone gets hurt

[tonybologna3]

correct way my ass. i wanted to see bent over rows not bent over shrugs.

[krizben]

stupid fuck this is not BOR

[ollywombat]

Where is the "bent over" part. lulz

[cerberus19d]

im going to have to agree with most of the negative comments. this is like the bastard offspring of a shrug and a deadlift. your torso should be nearly parallel with the floor. most people wont do them that way because they find it too awkward. sorry guys!

[nonfictionone]

great shrugs. lifting a weight does some good, but you may as well isolate slightly more, or at least include some exercises for the back.

[ironinge]

OMG stop it

[hoplakee]

wtf is this?

Not a bent-over-row you idiot... looks like some retarded attempt of a shrug

[mashkanyc]

lolllll

its a shame he's calling it an instruction video too

[Skleevan]

Yeah BENT OVER row... not this crap... what the hell..

[tonybologna3]

damn i was expecting to see bent over rows, not bent over shrugs.

[beast5158]

it looks like the right way to do it to me

[mad1966dog]

what a load of shit. who is this IDIOT !!!!!

[rodlaz1984]

What the fuck is that pile of shtie?! This should be removed from youtube, because a newbie might see that and start doing it... And we don't want that. What a nob!

[klined]

more like a reverse yates row

[Meni69]

Proper bent row technique means being bent in a parallel position to the floor, knees slightly bent to remove low back strain, and an elevated position standing on a block, box, or platform. This reduces trunk support and puts the body in a more favorable plane of motion to overload the muscles of the back. The reason you row off a block or a platform is that the bar should actually touch the toes at the bottom of the movement.

[dwin457]

you dont have to be parallel in to the floor in order to perform the row u can get the same results being at an angle but yea this guy is an idiot thats all shoulders what he is doing

[Meni69]

dwin, just saying that is the proper way, thats from scott abel on best of the back article on t-nation

you will use a lot less weight being perpendicular to the ground.

[dwin457]

either way will work ur lats just as much

[bigtomw87]

45 degrees please

[JasonDMX2]

Wow, this is sad... Spread of total misinformation, a layman could view this video alone and tell you that it's not working your back at all. That's what we call a half ass shoulder shrug.

[vetteluvnh]

This is kind of a bent over shrug. Everyone's an expert!

[dmdm595]

this is not the proper way to bent over row..

[hondp4]

everyones a fuckin expert why dont u all shut the fuck up and let the man make his vid u stupid dickheads

[venomer9002]

Hey dude, if u dont know how to do it, dont teach others...cuz your form is incorrect...ur doing almost shoulder shrugs....

[Stdea01]

because this isn't the right way to do it. It's that simple.

[m03ez]

Yeah i don't think this is an ordinary bent over row. You have to bend down a little more.

[joenoeb]

That's how you do a Yates Row, not a Bent Over Row.

[GreasyGuerilla]

bent rows. BENTTT ROWS. JESUS

[CptnNinjaPantsPirat]

how much were you shrugging?
