feeling of DB rows

[muscledog95]

I just got done doing a 5x5 of DB rows. I never feel a burn in my back. Any of you not get the feel as I do?

only time i feel back burn is deads, but i dont do deads very much, and wont until i strengthen my lower back first, since they have always hurt my back. im planning on doing thme in the beginning of July.

I mean my upper back(lats, middle)

My back never burns unless I'm doing squats or deads

I tend to feel DB rows in my rear delts and brachialis the most.

pull it to your waist

get your lats big with deads first then add in rows once your able to feel your lats more, then do rows while flexing them and pull up with them, thats what I did, if you cant flex them each, you might want to practice flexing them, might help a bit

Here's a great tip for any pulling exercise.

Attempt to keep your biceps unflexed. If you focus on this you immediately will feel your back muscles take over.

I have strong biceps and they always would do the pulling until I lowered the weight and focused on my back. Then I started feeling the pump in my back as opposed to my arms.

pull it to your waist

Just experimented with that and it does make a difference. Nice tip.
