The Upright Barbell Row is an exercise for the development of the shoulders and trapezius muscles. It is basically a weight lifting shoulder exercise performed while standing, holding a weight hanging down in the hands and lifting it straight up to the collarbone.

EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS

  1. The barbell upright row is one of the best exercises for building the upper traps and shoulders. Load up a barbell with the weight you want to use and stand facing it with your feet at around shoulder width apart.
  2. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip (palms facing down), and hands slightly closer than shoulder width apart.
  3. Pick the bar up, bending at the knees and keeping your back straight.
  4. Keeping your back straight and eyes facing forwards, lift the bar straight up while keeping it as close to your body as possible (you should pull the bar up to around chest height - nearly touching your chin).
  5. Pause, and then slowly lower the bar back to the starting position.
  6. Repeat for desired reps.

​Upright Row Tips:

  1. Focus on keeping your elbows higher than your forearms. The elbows push the motion.
  2. Keep your body fixed throughout the set. Don't lean forward as you lower the bar, and back as you raise it. Movement of the body makes the upright row easier, and you will not get the most out of it.
  3. Pause and squeeze the traps at the top of the movement, and then lower the bar really slowly if you want to add a bit of intensity to the exercise.
