How to perform
To perform the EZ Bar Reverse Grip Bent Over Row, follow these steps:1. Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and holding the EZ bar with an underhand grip, palms facing up. Keep your hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
2. Bend your knees slightly and hinge at the hips to lower your torso, keeping your back flat and chest up. Your back should be at a 45-degree angle to the floor.
3. Engage your core muscles and pull the barbell towards your abdomen, keeping your elbows close to your body. Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
4. Slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the movement.
5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
It is important to use proper form while performing the EZ Bar Reverse Grip Bent Over Row to avoid injury and maximize results.
