Hi Steve,

Just read a good portion of your journal. Great job so far; seems like things have been moving well to this point!

I just noticed that the standing Row overly fatigues your lower back. If this is becoming an issue, you could begin every rep on the floor, much like a Classic Row or a Pendlay Row. I've been doing Rows from the floor for over a year now and they feel much more natural and it's not nearly as hard on the lower back.

Here are a couple links describing the Pendlay Row if you're interested:

Keep up the good work!

Cheers,
