The Scribbler Oct 2012 4:52pm, 29 Oct 2012 2,039 posts	0 The Scribbler Yes, renegade rows wouldn't be an exercise I'd recommend to a complete beginner. You need to have awareness of your core to prevent twisting and a decent amount of strength and balance to do them properly. You can get a similar effect in the major working muscles (trapezius and latissimus dorsi?) with a bent over row. The renegade gives you a bit of abdominal tension too. I do love whole body exercises
RichHL Oct 2012 9:46pm, 29 Oct 2012 5,243 posts	0 RichHL The renegade rows were easy. I should have used a weight closer to that I use for bent-over rows. I found it hardest on my palms because I didn't take my little mitts with me. The single-leg dead lifts were an absolute sod. I've forgotten how to stand on one leg since the last time I tried this.

RichHL Oct 2012 9:53pm, 29 Oct 2012 5,245 posts	0 RichHL It's a choice between man-planks and bent-over rows. I'm not sure that planks actually do anything other than make me miserable.

RichHL Nov 2012 10:38pm, 5 Nov 2012 5,286 posts	0 RichHL I want to stop very shortly after I start. Step-ups, reverse planks, odd front planks where you shuffle up and down a bench and some glute bridges tonight.
