Dumbbell Pronated to Neutral-Grip Row
The two-dumbbell bent-over row that starts with the palms facing back and turns them to face each other as the bells rise.
How to do it
Setup
Hinged to about 45°, back flat, the bells hanging with the palms facing back.
Steps
- Row the bells, turning the palms to face each other on the way up.
- Finish with the elbows along the body.
- Turn the palms back as the bells lower.
Common mistakes
Turning the palms only at the very top: the turn runs through the whole pull. Elbows flaring as the palms turn: they end along the ribs. Losing the hinge: the torso angle stays.
Breathing
Exhale on the row, inhale lowering.
