Inverted Row (Leaning Pull-up)
Back, biceps
Performance Notes
A "field-expedient" compound movement targeting the back and biceps muscles. Two spotters face each other holding the ends of a bar (or hockey stick) firmly by their hips. The lifter grasps the bar/stick with a wide overhand (pull-up) grip, leaning back with the feet as far forward as possible, and pulls herself up chest up until the chest touches the bar/stick). This can also be done with an underhand (chin-up) grip to focus more on the biceps.
