Dumbbell Rows
Target Muscles:
upper and middle back, biceps, rear deltoids
How To:
- Stand with feet shoulder width apart, dumbbell in each hand
- Bend at the waist, upper body should be almost parallel with ground, slight bend at knees, arms hang straight down with palms facing in toward eachother
- Pull dumbbells up until they touch the sides of your chest, arms should stay close to your body and elbow should rub your rib cage
- Hold and then slowly lower dumbbells back toward the ground
- Locomotive Row: same as above but pull the right arm up, hold for a beat. As you are lowering your right arm, pull your left arm up. Repeat
Important: your back should be flat throughout the entire movement. Focus on lifting the dumbbells with your back. Pretend you are squeezing a pencil with your shoulder blades.
