Technique

1. Hold an EZ bar with an underhand grip on the inner angled sections.
2. Hinge forward with a flat back until your torso is at about 45 degrees, knees soft.
3. Row the bar to your lower stomach, elbows close to the body.
4. Lower until your arms are straight, keeping the back position.

Cues

• The angled grip is easier on the wrists than a straight bar.
• Brace the abs before each rep.

Common mistakes

• Rounding the lower back as the set gets hard.
• Using the legs and hips to bounce the bar up.
