How to do it

Set up in a push-up plank gripping two hexagonal dumbbells with feet wide, then row one dumbbell to your hip while keeping the hips completely level, and alternate sides.

Muscles worked

Primary: back · Also works: core, biceps

Equipment

Dumbbells

Common mistakes

• Letting the hips rotate up toward the ceiling as the dumbbell comes off the floor
• Using round dumbbells that roll, which turns a stable base into a wobble
• Placing the feet together, which makes the anti-rotation demand far harder than it needs to be

Variations

• Renegade row from the knees
• Renegade row with a push-up between each pair of rows
