1 arm dumbbell row - One Exercise a Day by Kathryn Alexander

1 arm dumbbell row: fantastic for posture and a strong core.

Your exercise for the day is the 1 arm dumbbell row. 

How to do the 1 Arm Dumbbell Row

Last week we did this with both arms at a time, and today we’ll do 1. 

  • Set up with your shoulders and hips square, facing forward. 
  • Hinge your hips back so your torso faces more toward the floor.
  • Start with the dumbbell in your left hand, and stabilize yourself by bracing your right arm on your right knee.
  • From there, you can optionally widen your stance by moving your left foot behind your right. This is called kickstand stance, or B stance.
  • From here, straighten your left arm, letting the dumbbell move toward the floor.
  • Let your left shoulder stretch toward the ground, then pull your shoulder back toward your spine. 
  • Bent the elbow as you finish the lift.
  • At the top position, your shoulder blade is squeeze toward your spine, and your elbow is slightly behind your torso.

Repeat for a total of 10 reps. 

Then do the other side, completing 10 reps on your right side.
