    I really, really hate rows. Like. HATE. They're uncomfortable, I keep hurting my back because the form is hard for me, I feel self conscious and weird doing them in public... ugh. The worst.

    How is your core strength? If you mean bent over rows, those can definitely feel awkward starting out. This is the main lift that made a huge difference in my core strength back when I was super weak. Start with really, really low weight. (To put this in perspective, leaning over in that exact position with 0 weight to wash my face from the shower faucet felt uncomfortable in my back before I started lifting). This is a lift that I came to love because it made such a major difference in my core and back.
