Rear Delt Row

How to

Dumbbell
  1. 1 Hinge forward, dumbbells hanging, palms facing back.
  2. 2 Row out wide, elbows at shoulder height.
  3. 3 Lower slowly to a full stretch.

Tips

  • Keep the upper arms out at about 90° to the body; that makes it rear delt work.
  • Use less weight than for a normal row.
  • A chest-supported incline bench keeps the torso still.

Common mistakes

  • Tucking the elbows so the lats take over.
  • Heaving with the lower back.
  • Shrugging at the top.
