lol ok well you did ask what I was going to do to improve them, there 19 inches I think or more, but more size on them wont hurt. I like a mixture of lower heavy reps of 10 to higher 30 with stretch and slight pause on contraction, rest pause is good to extend a set as the muscle recovers quickly so you can keep going. I train them twice a week.

Rich Pianos back looks so lame in that posing video, I wonder if all that filling in his arms stops his muscles from being able to contact properly.

Those are the most effective exercises for lower lats 'if done right' 

Precisely what you are lacking bak there  ;)

Definitely, if you are a moronic ego trainer.   I've never had any problems doing them this way.  Any exercise can fuck you up if you train with sloppy form and/or go too heavy.

agree with him, using old school way

But you have learn how to do it many years ago. Then came Yates, who muscles were torn in so many ways, that he couldn't do it with the "right" old school way, and all little bodybuilders and wannabes has adopt his way of rowing. Why? Because you can lift bigger weights with that style. It doesn't make your back wide, it makes your upper body thick and that's why we see so many bodybuilders and wannabes without lower lats at all.

If you stop to think about that, you see that Yates have six Mr. Olympia's, so let say his style of rowing have 6 points. On the other hand, all the bodybuilders before him from Larry Scott to Lee Haney has used old school way, so just count Mr. Olympia titles of that bunch? It is 27 titles/27 points. Which is better? Old school rows are far better, but how to teach this fact to the bodybuilders and wannabes? There is no way to do that, so we have to thank Mr. Dorian Yates, because he has ruin more backs and cause more injuries than all other bodybuilding legends put together  ;D

Dorian was the guy that made reverse grip rows popular. And he liked to bend over slightly as he rowed.

LMAO!  Look at the way he dramatically postures his arm up in the air with a curled wrist!

This "pro bodybuilding" shit is hilarious!  I LOVE spreading negativity when it comes to these clowns.

slightly? but it worked for him. Agree with Rich the Bent over row is just above parallel. If you do it correctly and really squeeze your shoulders back..then stupid weights are not used.

Big Ro is very strong. His Barbell Rows are sensational. Yates rows or standard. Big Back.  Don´t agree with his Politics but is a Strong Guy.
