Just found your channel - had fusion surgery 2 years ago in the same place you had your rupture. I have been working out making incredible gains, but the seated row was killing me. I think I have been doing everything wrong - cannot wait to drop the weight and try again, because I love this exercise! Thank you for the tips!
Oh mate, this is changing my life. I’ve had lower back pain for years due to trying to catch a running child and have recently started at the gym for the first time in my life (35yo). This exercise always left me undoing the good stuff I’d done with deadlifts and the like, which weirdly don’t hurt. I’d been really swinging into the motion and extending both forward and back, thinking that I would get more from treating it like rowing a boat for Oxford or something!
Watching this after getting home from gym injuring my back exactly how he described in second reason. Is there any steps for recovery? I'd appreciate that greatly!! Thanks!
@@rafael_lory_ it got fixed by itself in 2 weeks time mate, I did try the steps shown in this video for the first week ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tJouyrUm7Pc.html
"Not respecting the shearing effect" is exactly what I did last week and felt a pain in my back. Thanks to this video I will not be doing that this week.
Do you feel doing this on the floor opposed to on a raised bench in the gym helps or makes a difference? I like what your putting out very valuable stuff sir
I think with tight hips being up off the ground would be better. It also will help with the angle at the low back when sitting. Even with my injury I can do both without an issue.
I personally found the chest supported row to be a safer option. Having the support in front of me helps me to better brace and avoid excessive swing of the weight during the exercise.
