Barbell Row Underhand Grip

Lats Barbell

Description

The barbell row with an underhand grip is a compound exercise that primarily targets the lats while also engaging the biceps, rhomboids, and middle back. The underhand grip increases biceps involvement and promotes a greater range of motion. This exercise is effective for building back thickness, strength, and pulling power.

How To

01 Grip the bar underhand, hands shoulder-width apart
02 Hinge forward until your torso's nearly flat
03 Drive your elbows back, keep them tucked tight
04 Squeeze your back hard at the top
05 Lower with control and reset
