Using a bent-over dumbbell row, increase the lat size

Using a bent-over dumbbell row, increase the lat size



One of the most effective complex back exercises is the bent-over dumbbell row when done correctly. Bent-over dumbbell rows make it easier to build upper and middle back thickness, which is harder to do with deadlifting and other rowing activities. Additionally a core stabilization exercise, the movement.

The latissimus dorsi (also known as the lats), rhomboids, lower traps, and erector spinae are the primary muscles targeted by the bent-over dumbbell row. The rotator cuff must also contribute to weight stabilization.


Execution:


* Stand next to a bench with your feet shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.

 * With one hand supporting your body, lean against the bench.

  * Grasp the dumbbell with a neutral grip and pick it up off the floor.

  * Pull the dumbbell towards your waist until it hits your ribs from this posture. The lats and mid-back muscles need to be strongly contracted.

   * Once your pulling shoulder is pulled downward, extend your arm and gradually lower the dumbbell.

   * After completing the required number of repetitions, change your arm.


Notes:


1. Instead of gripping the dumbbell and letting the biceps and forearm perform the majority of the effort, attempt to visualize your arm as a hook and pull with your back (raising your elbow up).


2. Maintain a nearly horizontal torso.


3. To lift greater weights, avoid rotating your torso and instead leverage your body's inertia. Instead, make an effort to maintain a still torso while working your back and rear deltoids.
