Review: Reverse Grip Bent-Over Rows

Exercise Rating
10/10

Apr 24, 2012 11:57 PM: Regular bent over rows bother my tennis elbow. This version eliminates the pain I was enduring during bent over rows. If you have wrist or elbow problems I highly recommend the reverse grip.

Feb 18, 2012 11:54 PM: Underhand grip is superior to the pronated grip simply because there is less stress on the elbows and you can feel a better contraction in your back. Also, this style enables you to lift heavier, so this workout is definitely a mass builder! Just make sure you keep good form so you will not compromise...+See More

Nov 14, 2011 4:17 AM: When I do back, I usually feel like I'm clocking in for work and this exercise I consider my bonus money. Not only do your feel it all over your back, but you feel it in every muscle in your arms and shoulders as much. Defenately one of my favorite all body workouts.

Jul 17, 2011 11:45 AM: This is one of the best, i find with the underhand grip, if you do a wider grip it will get more rhomboid involvement and less of the rear delts. Either way great.

Jun 6, 2010 6:51 PM: This is the perfect grip to use when going heavy on Bent-over rows. The other grip is nice, but this way it feels as if there's more bicep involvement letting you lift more weight thus burning up your back and getting a good workout. LOVE IT!
