Bent-over Rows
|
When doing bent-over rows, use a single dumbbell instead of a barbell. So, if you are holding the dumbbell in your right hand, place your left hand and left knee on a bench. (Your right foot is on the ground.) That way, your spine is supported like a table with 3 legs. This will help prevent lower back strain.

A fundamental design of Hilleberg tents is that the outer fly cover is integrated with the inner tent body, making set-up easier, but, also, helping prevent the fly from catching the wind as much.
