How Far Do YOU Bring it?
When doing bent over BB rows how far or how close do you bring the bar to your chest? I do not tap my chest w/ the bar but some guy, training another kid at my gym told me i wasnt completing ROM.. He's always there with another kid when im there but i dont pay him any attention because his kids arent getting any bigger and he looks sloppy..

What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)

How is your grip? I guess because my grip is narrow the bar doesnt really need to touch.

You hafta bring the bar up to your stomach for 2 reasons:
1. so you complete a full ROM 2. if you bring it to your chest, you're using too much delts and not enough back. |

This was always my technique...
I've never had any back, wrist or joint trouble... Bring it to rest right on the belt... |

it takes alot away when you guys stand almost upright (like Dorian).
you need to lean way over for them to be effective |
