. . . besides, of course, the master Big Dicked Bob.

I used to do them during my first few years of training ... but since its safety was questioned ... I've just been doing shrugs for traps ever since. Anybody do both, upright rows and shrugs?

never

I always do upright rows.

No,
since I'm not man enough and BDB has licensed doing them correctly...

I tried to join BDB's crew, "team upright row". I was declined. I'm serious.

Only the cable version doesn't fuck with my rotator cuff

If BDB isn't available, Hulkotron can speak on the matter.

Costanza does.

Yes.

Vary your hand position for each set.

I switched to snatch grip high pulls paired with Hammer Strength shrugs

Worthless exercise

Jibril · « **Reply #12 on:** November 29, 2017, 08:33:24 PM »

Yes, upright rows on the smith machine works great.

jude2 · « **Reply #13 on:** November 29, 2017, 09:33:31 PM »

I use a very wide grip and you can't go to high.

Fortress · « **Reply #14 on:** November 29, 2017, 09:36:48 PM »

Great exercise. Unfortunately it’s a shoulder-killer.

Haven’t done it in decades.

Is this dude on the spectrum?

Should be an Olympic lift.

Worthless and very shoulder unfriendly

Tank Abbott upright rowing 315

Is there any other way to get shredded lats?

SuperTed · « **Reply #21 on:** November 30, 2017, 02:18:03 AM »

I believe Hulkotron is the expert on this exercise.

Skylge · « **Reply #22 on:** November 30, 2017, 03:01:14 AM »

Never. Very bad for your shoulders. Unnatural movement. Not worth the risk

denarii · « **Reply #23 on:** November 30, 2017, 03:38:42 AM »

i found that having the hand at almost 90 degrees to the forearm was awkward and im sure it had a ronnie coleman effect on the joints over time.

illuminati · « **Reply #24 on:** November 30, 2017, 03:47:22 AM »

Yes - wide & narrow grip they work well for me.
Also do press behind neck

No shoulder joint problems
Have always warmed up & do flexibility work.
