How to do it

  1. Stand with a dumbbell in each hand using a neutral grip, palms facing in.
  2. Hinge at the hips with a slight knee bend until the torso sits just above horizontal.
  3. Let the dumbbells hang below the shoulders with a flat back and braced abs.
  4. Pull both elbows back and up until the weights reach the sides of the waist.
  5. Squeeze the shoulder blades together at the top without shrugging the neck.
  6. Lower the dumbbells under control to full arm extension and repeat.

Common mistakes

  • Rounding the lower back in the hinge, which loads the spine instead of the upper back.
  • Standing too upright, which turns the row into a shrug.
  • Jerking the torso up with each rep so momentum, not the back, moves the weights.
  • Flaring the elbows wide instead of keeping them close to the sides.
