Inverted Row

Back · Bodyweight

How to do it

Bar at hip height, body hanging underneath in a straight line from the heels. Pull until your chest touches the bar, squeezing the blades, and lower under control. The more horizontal your body, the harder it is; with feet raised it is close to a bodyweight row. You feel mid back and lower traps. Keep the hips up: let them sag and it becomes a different exercise.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
