When doing them to give yourself an extra challenge try changing which hand you have the BB in and change the foot your leading with. Since you folks in CT get so much snow you can do that next time your out doing the real thing. I do BB rows. So it's not that I'm not a fan. If done correctly they will give you a rock solid core and lower back. Take a better look at the EC photo Lis has up. Great lumbar curve which will carry over into the big lifts.

Both will make you strong but they are very different movements. They also both use different muscle groups. Virtual shoveling will hit your obliques forarms and biceps. Rows hit Latissimus Dorsi and lower trapezius. Hope this helps. Jen Dan,

I promise to think about virtual shoveling from a Marketing Research perspective though. Plus, I'm actually pretty sore from yesterday's little ring dip excursion.

How fun is a simple bent over barbell row vs virtual shoveling? FYI.. my forearms took the grunt of the abuse this morning. Silly Dan… How fun is a simple bent over barbell row vs virtual shoveling?
