Should You Do One Arm Dumbbell Rows?

Question - What is your goal? Toning/burning fat, adding muscle, or bodybuilding?

For toning/burning fat and adding muscle, one arm rows may not be the best exercise.

Why? One arm exercises are designed to isolate ½ of a persons body in order to strengthen/develop each half equally. For bodybuilders (people who already have lots of muscle) this can be vital.

In contrast, if you want to tone/burn fat or build muscle - using as much of your body in an exercise will give you far better results.

More muscles used in an exercise = more calories burned + more growth hormones released

2 Better Options

Both of these exercises will empower you to train twice as much muscle - in one exercise.

How to Perform One Arm Rows

1. Keep your head up throughout the dumbbell exercise - looking forward.

2. Maintain a flat back - not allowing it to round over at the bottom the movement.

3. Keep your elbow close to your side throughout the dumbbell exercise.

Do you want the best results?

Tip 1 - Avoid using momentum. Select a weight that will empower your body to do each repetition with good form.

Tip 2 - Focus on pulling with your elbow.

Tip 3 - Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
