Barbell Rear Delt Row

This rear-delt variation of the bent-over row uses a wide grip and flared elbows to specifically target the rear shoulders and upper back. It helps counteract forward shoulder posture and builds pulling strength.

Instructions

1. Hold the bar with a wide overhand grip and stand upright.
2. Hinge forward at the hips until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor.
3. Pull the bar to your upper chest with elbows flared out wide.
4. Squeeze the rear delts at the top, then lower the bar under control.
5. Repeat for the desired reps.
