How to perform?
The Bent Over Barbell Row is a compound exercise that primarily works the Latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, and trapezius muscle in the upper back. Additionally, the rear delts, biceps, and erector spinae muscles are also worked as secondary and tertiary muscles, with grip being worked as a stabilizing quaternary muscle.
Your back muscles are the primary beneficiaries of the bent-over row, and as they increase in strength your posture will also improve so you don't slump as much. Directly stimulating your lats, traps, rhomboids and rotator cuffs works wonders for your body.
