How to perform

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, holding a dumbbell in each hand (palms facing each other). Hinge at the hips, leaning your torso 45 degrees forward, maintaining a flat back. Brace your core and pull shoulder blades back and down. Row the dumbbells towards your hips, leading with your elbows. Squeeze shoulder blades at the top, then lower under control. Exhale on the row, inhale on the lower.

Tips

Establish a stable back position before gripping the dumbbells. Focus on driving your elbows back with each repetition. Maintain a consistent hinge position throughout the exercise. Perform full range of motion, extending fully and rowing high.
