    Upright Rows

    I do them on the cables. Doesn't hurt my shoulders or forearms. Seems like I'm turning to the cables more and more lately. I can train pain free with them. Try upright rows on the cable. You'll love the pump.

    A bloke I was speaking to the other day reckoned that you should be to row (bent over rows or pen daly row) approximately as much as you can bench, so that your muscles are 'balanced' - thoughts on this? Correct, rubbish, bro science?

    bent over rows

    If you do them, what weight are you using for your worksets. Also give squat and deadlift numbers for comparison. If you can remember can you say what weight you started on with rows too. Thanks.

    I do these once a week on my shoulders day. I'm seeing some gain in the last 5 months (30->50kg close grip).
