I also find that deadlifting the weight initially activates the lats more, if you want to do 45 degree rows... just sayin.

Duh, I said "light."  3 plates per side is light for your typical getbig super model fucking, million a day making, mr olympia caliber physique owning member.

what's the point of doing them light?

I tried it today, seemed to be effective at working the lats AND putting my lower back in a compromised position.  I will try them next time from a low pin on a rack.
