Exercise The Right Way - One-Arm Dumbbell Rows
Other articles in this series looked at a number of exercises, mainly from the perspective of developing a comprehensive muscle building program. Sometimes we take things for granted, especially when it comes to performing the basic exercises that constitute the core of most bodybuilders' training regimes. It is useful, therefore, to describe in detail the processes involved in actually doing these exercises. This will help beginners to start out using the correct techniques before moving on to potentially more dangerous heavy weights. If it also helps more experienced lifters to redress some of the little faults that have almost imperceptibly crept in over the years, all the better. In this article we'll take a close look at One-Arm Dumbbell Rows. MUSCLES TARGETED: latissimus dorsi, trapezius (mid), biceps brachialis STARTING POSITION Grasp a dumbbell with an overhand grip and palm facing body. Rest your opposite knee on a flat bench. The supporting leg should be slightly flexed with the foot flat on the floor. The back should remain straight, parallel to the floor. The dumbbell should be held at arm's length. EXERCISE TECHNIQUE Pull the dumbbell upward in a straight line with the elbow kept close to the body. Lower the dumbbell slowly to the starting position. Repeat this movement until the intended number of repetitions have been completed. Repeat on the other side. OTHER EXERCISES WORTH CONSIDERING Other exercises that tackle these muscles include Bent-Over Barbell Rows (mid trapezius), Chin-Ups (upper trapezius) and Lat Pull-Downs Behind the Neck (upper trapezius).

Over the last couple of years I have taken a number of layoffs, for a variety of different reasons. Many times I wonder why I lift at all.
