Bent Over Row With Kickbacks
*Check with Your Physician Before Beginning Any Exercise Program!
How to Do It
Hold medium-heavy dumbbells in both hands. Slowly bend over at the hips, keeping back flat and stomach tight, until upper body is almost parallel to the floor. Pull dumbbells towards your ribcage in a rowing motion then extend forearms until they are straight out behind you. Repeat for 1 to 3 sets of 12-16 repetitions, with a 20-30 second rest between sets.
This exercise works the lats (back), and arms, as well as the triceps.
*Keep head and neck in alignment throughout the movement
*When doing the row, keep elbows close to the body and don't let them go past
the rib cage (maybe a few inches past, but no more).
*Use medium-heavy weights for this exercise.
