I do them exactly like Ronnie Coleman but with less bouncing and far less weights. Ronnie Works his way up to 5pl8s. I use 2pl8 on my last set.

from knee height and pull diagonally into your hips

this gives the best lat activation

Is it ok to sub rows for pull ups?

Hook grip, lowering the weight to below knee and row into abdomen with a little body english. Around 45 degree angle. Rinse repeat

>>37797266
yes
rowing has shitty lat ROM
just do more vertical pulls and add shit for your traps/rhomboids etc

>>37797277
>>37797266
This.
I started doing 3xF chinups instead of rows because rows didnt do shit and I couldn't progress

>>37797277
Do kroc rows work traps as well?

Pendlay Rows.

I used to do the bodybuilding/Dorian Yates way of doing Barbell Rows, but I switched to Pendlay Rows and never looked back.

yeah to a certain degree
if you really want to isolate the upper back i can suggest high row (at least chest hight)
the chest supported machine variant is great

this takes the lats out of the equation which get hit better by vertical pulls anyway

reminder that rows are steroid propaganda

Even crossfitters would be ashamed of that kipping

>How does /fit/ do their barbell rows?

I don't.

Weighted Chin-Ups + Push-Press + Barbell Shrugs + Deadlifts

Literally no point in Rowing when I'm already doing those 4 exercise multiple times a week.

>elbows out bar up to chest height
isn't that just a row that hits rear delts??

>>37798015

Jesus fucking christ.....

>>37798015
rear delt rows are performed with a wider grip, but it is almost the same shit. Mstill targets primarily traps and rhomboids.

Personally i never felt rows in my lats until i watched this.

>he thinks push press significantly workspulling muscles
Literally less than bench press.

Do dumbbell/barbell seal rows, look it up. Regular dumbbell rows are fine though, but barbell rows are they biggest meme ever.

I don't think you understand what a Push Press actually does.

>>37797213
I hope you're on as much gear as Coleman, because you're not going to get hardly shit out of ego lifting it like that when you could do a real floor pull.
