    Thanks Kazzari. I felt like I was doing them right, but the movement felt too small. Next time I will try with 2 risers instead of 3.

    Also, as the weight gets heavier you will need to use your hips to break the bar from the floor before you begin pulling the weight up to your stomach. Think of the start of a stiff legged deadlift from the floor.

    Speaking of barbell rows, could you guys please take a look at my video and see if my form needs help? Thank you! :bigsmile:

    looked good. i was going to suggest removing one of the risers so that you're fully extended when the bar is down. the movement feels different once you have weights on the bar.

    my goal for saturday is 65 lbs. i did one tonight, just to see how it felt....... it's an awkward exercise positioning wise, but i'm really LOVING it!!!!! i love feeling the muscles in my back contract and seeing even the tiniest of changes :-)
