Trap Bar Bent Over Row

IntermediateBarbell

The trap bar bent-over row is a back-focused pull that keeps the load lined up with your center of mass. That neutral-grip, centered position can feel more comfortable than a barbell row while still building the mid-back and lats. It's a good alternative if the barbell version bothers you or you want more variety.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand inside the trap bar with feet shoulder-width apart and grab the neutral handles.

  2. 2

    Hinge your hips back to roughly a 45-degree torso angle, knees softly bent.

  3. 3

    Brace your core and keep your back flat throughout.

  4. 4

    Drive your elbows up past your sides to pull the bar to hip height.

  5. 5

    Focus on pulling with your back rather than your biceps, and avoid using momentum.

  6. 6

    Lower the bar back down under control and repeat.
