What's the worst advice you ever heard on /fit/?
>Do pendlay rows instead of Yates rows
>>42283012
Do you do over or under hand? I typically underhand sometimes add extra sets of over.
tbar row is best row variation.
You can overload like normal barbell, you can lift most weight and its least taxing on lower back
>not doing chest supported rows
>>42283182
You can do all of those with barbell rows plus it has better range of motion
>>42283221
Chest supported rows are all well and good for squeezing and contractions anr all that, same with cable rows but they just aren't the same as good low-ish rep barbell rows pulled to your waist and worrying about power

Dorian himself says underhand is a bit better but it doesn't really make a huge amount of difference except a little bit of extra ROM
what is wrong with Pendlays?
>>42283302
This op is probably a moron or new to lifting, and he probably fucked his shit up with pendlays. Honestly yates are easier on ur lower back so if u are weaker there do yates
>>42283302
Nothing

> not doing bench rows
lol
patrician opinion: nobody cares, just row, progressively overload and preferrably don't snap your shit up

Pendlay rows = more emphasis on lower back which you don't need if you already squat and deadlift
Yates rows = mechanically strong position for lats and doesn't use as much lower back
ratpoison in moderate amounts will boost your free test level
Food for thought: I have NEVER seen anyone at my gym who actually looks like they lifts doing pendlay rows
Do dumbbell chest press work if you're flat on the ground?
>>42283423
It's called a floor press and it's a good assistance exercise for bench

i always thought of pendlays as being an assistance exercise for c&j, helping with explosiveness off the floor. i enjoy doing pendlays but yates rows are probably more efficient as a pure back exercise
