Inverted Rows - Horizontal
Dallas Personal Trainer - The next step up from 45 Degree Inverted Rows, this exercise is used frequently by Dallas personal trainers who have a preference towards utilizing the body as resistance and who place a large emphasis on core strength and stability (a philosophy with which we heartily agree).
Perform these by gripping your hands on a bar racked on a squat rack with your feet propped up on a box or bench or anything else that will allow your body hang parallel to the ground. Begin by hanging down with your arms fully extended, while keeping your body perfectly straight from head to toe. Now pull yourself up with your arms and upper back muscles until your chest touches the bar. Lower yourself under the control of the muscles and repeat.
Once these become too easy, begin to add weight by setting a weight plate on your stomach or by hanging a weighted dip belt around your torso. Keep adding weight until you eventually become strong enough to perform Inverted Rows (free hanging).
Make sure to keep your body straight as a board from head to toe throughout this entire exercise.
