Staying Strong and Healthy Bent Over Row
In this video in the Staying Strong and Healthy video series, Dreu White, exercise physiologist at KU Medical Center, teaches proper form for a bent over row. This video is part of the Staying Strong and Healthy Prostate Cancer intervention.
1. Hip Hinge: It’s important to hinge at the hips and maintain a flat back throughout the bent over row movement. This is crucial to avoid strain on the lower back.
2. Hand Position: Hold the handles of the resistance band with an overhand grip, with palms facing the body and hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
3. Pulling Motion: Pull the handles towards the lower ribcage in a smooth, controlled motion. The key is to squeeze the shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
4. Modifications: For individuals with lower back issues or difficulty maintaining balance, try performing the exercise in a seated position with back support, using a lighter resistance band, or adjusting the angle of the body to reduce strain.
