# Dumbbell Row
|
||||
|
||||
The one-arm row — knee and hand braced on the bench, pull the dumbbell
|
||||
from a dead hang to the ribs.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Category:** Main circuit
|
||||
- **Type:** Free-weight horizontal pull (dumbbell)
|
||||
- **Targets:** Lats, mid-back, biceps
|
||||
- **Prescription:** 3 × 8–12 per side
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
Put the same-side knee and hand on a bench, the other foot planted on
|
||||
the floor. Back flat and parallel to the ground, dumbbell hanging
|
||||
straight down from the shoulder.
|
||||
|
||||
## Execution
|
||||
|
||||
1. Pull the dumbbell up and back toward the hip until the elbow passes
|
||||
the ribs.
|
||||
2. Squeeze the shoulder blade at the top.
|
||||
3. Lower to a full hang and stretch. Finish the set, then switch sides.
|
||||
|
||||
## Cues
|
||||
|
||||
- The elbow leads; the hand just holds on.
|
||||
- Shoulders stay square to the floor — no twisting to hoist the weight.
|
||||
- Long neck, eyes down; the back stays flat.
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Mistakes
|
||||
|
||||
- Rotating the torso open at the top of each rep.
|
||||
- Pulling with the biceps instead of driving the elbow back.
|
||||
- Cutting the stretch short at the bottom.
|
||||
|
||||
## Progression
|
||||
|
||||
Heavier dumbbells while the torso stays quiet; pause each rep at the top
|
||||
for a stricter mid-back stimulus.
