Suspender Rear Delt Row

Suspender Rear Delt Row

Description

The suspender rear delt row uses a TRX or suspension trainer for a horizontal row with the elbows flared out high. The high-elbow path shifts emphasis from the lats to the rear delts and upper back. It is a great rear delt builder that requires only a suspension trainer.
