With strict form mine is ~40%. My limiting factor on bent-over rows is my lower back so I don’t feel like it’s the best measurement. IK seems to prefer cable rows. Anyone else have any ideas?
I am trying to match the Bench Press with the Hammer Seated Row. In both cases the torso is held in place by a bench.
I would be interested in hearing from the experts through.
If I may be so bold to speak for Ian, I think his focus on horizontal pushing and pulling is from an injury prevention standpoint. His thought is not neccessarly on acheiving a 1:1 on lifts, but acheiving a balance in volume. Scapular stabilization is key. Acheiving a big bench and having healthy shoulders requires scapula control. Heaving up a big row doesn’t mean you have scapular control. Ian’s control exercises would knock down many big rowers.
