So for my second auxiliary lift on bench day for 5/3/1, I elected to do Kroc rows. All I can say is damn. Those things make your whole upper body throb. They are awesome.

Awesome cardio. Just watch volume and frequency. Don't want to end up with tendinitis.

I read the article on kroc's back workout routine. Wish I had the time to do all of that. Maybe after I get my ass whooped at my competition in April, I can go full meathead again.

I do them every now and then, I really ought to do them consistently for a few months and see what happens. Ill bet the results would be good.

125lbx40 rep dumbell rows? Shit, I generally think I'm strong but can't touch that.

I used to love those but they ended up being murder on my shoulder. I used to work up to 155 lbs for 12-16 reps or so. I had a really strong back at the time and was doing a lot of heavy forced reps on barbell curls/rows also which really brought my overall strength level up significantly.

Never knew they were called "Kroc Rows". I always called them dumb-bell rows. Guess I don't even lift.

Edit: That guy puts a workout vid online and names something people have been doing forever after himself? Yeah, he invented that move.

It's more the rep range that is his "own". And I think someone else named it after him.

The tendinitis kicks my ass with Kroc rows as well. I really have to pay attention to volume and frequency.

I did his back workout in the video today, felt great. The T bar was being used so I substiuted a superset of Hammer Strength Mid Rows and low cable rows instead. Also, for the last 25 pull ups I did narrow neutral grip side to side pull ups.

You missed a crucial point...you don't get to name it after yourself. It's not crossfit.

Hmm. Rep range. An arbitrary number. OK, everyone, I do 58.5 reps of 20# and we'll call them PKT-rows. I need a youtube page and a gymbro.

The difference is you are not a huge well known pro powerlifter that contributes that lift to your grip strength, you are another random dude bitching on the internet.

I also believe someone else called them that.

How did you guys overcome your tendonitis?

I'm going to start working out again soon and am very concerned about a relapse - especially, in my forearms. It gets really bad, quick.

Thanks!
