Açıklama
The Pendlay Row is a specialized row variation popularized by coach Glenn Pendlay, where the barbell is pulled explosively from a dead stop on the floor in each rep. Unlike the classic bent-over row, the torso is kept parallel to the floor and every repetition starts from the ground. This eliminates momentum and develops explosive pulling power. It highly activates the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, middle trapezius, and rear deltoid muscles. It is frequently used by powerlifters and athletes to increase deadlift starting strength. When performed regularly, it provides significant improvements in mid-back hypertrophy, explosive pulling power, and overall back strength.
