Bend your knees slightly and lean forward from your waist, keeping your back straight, until your torso is almost parallel to the floor.
Keep your arms hanging down and close to your body, then pull the dumbbells up towards your chest, keeping your elbows close to your body.
Hold the position for a moment, squeezing your shoulder blades together.
Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position and repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions.
Pro Tip
Proper Grip: Hold the dumbbells with a reverse grip, palms facing up. A common mistake is to hold the dumbbells too loosely or too tightly. A firm but relaxed grip will help prevent both wrist strain and loss of control of the dumbbell. Controlled Movement: Avoid the mistake of using momentum to lift the weights. Instead, pull the dumbbells up towards your chest in a slow and controlled manner, and then lower them back down with the same control. This will ensure that your muscles, not momentum, are doing the work and will result in a more effective exercise. Engage the Right Muscles: The primary muscles worked in a dumbbell reverse grip row are the muscles in your back.
