Bent-over Row w/ Tube and Dumbbells 

 

  1. Begin by looping medium tube under the feet.  Grab on to either end of tubes and practice a few rows to determine how much tension you need.
  2. Wrap the remaining tubing around medium-weight dumbbells and hold both securely.
  3. Begin the exercise in a bent-over position, back flat, abs contracted, weights handing down at sides.
  4. Bend the elbows and contract the back to bring elbows up to torso level.
  5. Lower down and repeat

Tips:

  • Practice this exercise without the dumbbells first to get a feel for it
  • Make sure the tubing is very secure under your feet and you're able to grip both the tube and dumbbells safely throughout the movement  
  • If you don't feel safe and in control, choose one type of resistance to use
