Hi-Rows are similar to Upright Rows, with the exception on ROM, I use a wide grip so when I pull the bar up my torso, the upper arms are parallel to the floor (similar to the end position in Side Laterals) and the bar is right about sternum level, no higher as that tweaks my shoulder!!!

Any questions or comments or critiques are Welcomed!!!

Hey buddy! of course always interest in what ya do! You do inspire!
How are you liking the high rows? Will have to try them...if my broke-ass self can get fixed and back in the gym.

I thought this was called "Reign of Insanity", but knowing how you train this isn't too far from the truth!

Looking forward to some awesome workouts in here!

**katt** · 03-15-2010, 07:45 PM

okay I wanted to know how you could do back and chest on the same day????

then I saw the 1/2 for the crossovers.. lol lol isn't that the pitts.. you get half way and say wtf??? why won't the cables move.. DAMN IT!!!! LOL LOL I've totally been there

**Burner02** · 03-15-2010, 08:36 PM

Hey Katt! I do a similar workout...had to get used to it...then like it better than one BP per day.
(I don't kick as much ass as our resident smiter does, but its still a good workout)
You go from chest to back, then back to chest and thenn abck to back.
It gives your opposing muscle a few minutes to recover while doing the other.

I like it...or did...if I can get back in there....

Hiya arch!
You know the saying: leave it all in the gym! Looks like ya did!

**Gazhole** · 03-16-2010, 05:47 AM

Wow, incredible looking workout right there! Brutal stuff!

I gotta get back on the HIT style stuff after this strength phase.

I see you're doing high rows as well! They're really good and heavy, despite your shoulder

With the dips do you do a closer grip and bring your body a bit backwards to hit the triceps more or do you do the normal one?

Thank you, appreciate that!!!

I do Dips differently for each part, just like you mentioned, I keep my arms by my side during Dips for Triceps, and the body straight up and down...

Of all the different brands of machines I've used, I like Hammer the best.

Ditto!

**King Silverback** · 04-02-2010, 03:46 PM

Hello everyone, sorry been away, in the middle of changing gyms, so not really doing an organized workout at the current time, still keeping it INTENSE, but getting ready for new equipment!!!

Lilbit is studying Kung Fu currently (a chip off the old block) and is doing AWESOME!!! She has classes every tuesday/thursday/saturday and taking to it like a fish in water!!!

Hope all is well with everyone, GOD speed you ALL, and have a GREAT weekend!!!

**Gazhole** · 04-02-2010, 05:00 PM

Have a good one, Arch! Glad things are going well
