Which one is better?

>>41749078
neither. deadstop dumbbell rows or pendlay rows are the only ones you should be doing.

Barbell rows (pendlay row)
>>
Kroc Rows all day erryday. Pumps my back like crazy.
On the other hand, Bent-Over Rows seem to be a staple in every Golden Era guys' routine, and these guys had the strongest backs ever.
So yeah, Degenerate Tranny Rows for dat mass, Bent-Over Rows for strength and upper back without the lats.

Can't do high rep kroc rows because my grip fails
>>
it's more about your form than about whether you're gripping a barbell or a dumbbell
how fucking stupid do you have to be to really think every single person does barbell and dumbbell rows the same?
>>
>>41749181
Can an actual man of manly height do this exercise? Looks like an exclusive manlet move.

Do you get any bicep gains from rows?
I'm doing weighted chinups and curls now, but my biceps are pretty shit, and I'm gonna add BB rows soon and it would be nice with some growth without having to resort to more isolation.

Meadows rows? Yeah.

So are Kroc rows just DB rows with cheat/body english?
>>
>>41749078

You can always do both (!)
>>
>>41751762

A little body language and high rep. There's so many muscles in the back all working to achieve very similar movements, but some are better than the others based on the amount of force you need to use. imo if you're going to do a kroc/pendlay style row, you should also do a slow and controlled type of row as well.
>>
>>41749301
it's not good for you shoulders to neglect rowing movements
>>
>>41750730

try kettlebells, those have handles higher

>>41752108
he's right though. You should be doing some sort of horizontal pull for your posterior delts.

I got my bench up around 225 4x10, and I was having trouble keeping my good form, will I realized that I'd been neglecting rowing motions. I can't be bothered with most rows (not ergonomic), but inverted rows are the best.

Nope. Conventional rowing movements do fuck all when it comes to posterior deltoid activation. High rep reverse flies with a pronated grip and face pulls in the 8 to 10 rep range with high TUT is literally god tier when it comes to rear delt training. Do one of these 2 movements after every push workout.

Even Pull-ups with a pronated grip are better than rows when it comes to rear deltoid activation.
>>
>>41749078
Don't do Kroc rows, they are clinically proven to turn you into a faggot.
>>
>>41752407
>Conventional
Weasel word. Face Pulls and High Rows hit the rear delts (as do Pullups and Reverse Flys, as you mentioned).
>>
>>41749181
god forbid you cheat a rep lmao
>>
>>41752407
those exercises are boring tho
