Too many people also swing their spine when they do them and don’t drive the elbow back

They’re all doing it wrong then. It is not a compound exercise.
I probably banged your mom.

This. The dumbbell should be almost making a circular path as your elbow swings back. Bringing it straight up doesn't make sense.

I do single arm landmine rows instead. I like the movement and it works better for me.

One of the best back exercises there is if you can actually engage the target muscles and use them to move the weight. It's great because you can hit different parts of your back depending on how you do them and which muscles you focus on during the movement. I also find them to be more effective when you do them like this



As opposed to the typical way like this

I’ve been lifting for 15 years and can say dumbbell rows is probably the hardest movement to learn there is.

I would say for the majority bent over barbell rows are superior because you don’t have to focus 1/10th of what you have to do on one arm rows


I’d say 95% of people on an average a day don’t do single arm dumbbell rows proper

I can't stand when people do DB rows right on the ****ing DB rack. No curtesy for the other gym goers that may want to put a weight back or use some of the weights you are using to leverage yourself. Nope, have to wait for you to finish your set of ****gy single arm DB rows first.

Wouldn’t say better tho. If you can do a proper single arm db row it will win every time over barbell or cables

I don’t mind at all, flat benches move, very easy to injure yourself, db rack always seems to be perfect arm placement for rows too


So long as after there set they re rack the weight and move out the way while resting

Or you could brace yourself using an incline bench instead of sperging out.
