That’s because when your arm is internally rotated and your elbows are elevated at the same time, you’re pinching your supraspinatus tendon pretty hard and it’ll develop into a tear over time.

I don't know but in my opinion barbell flies are better for the delts and have more carryover to the calf raises.

These are what professional sports trainers use to work on their athletes' shoulder impingement. Good shoulder impingement is useful in just about any sport.

How does it work for different somatotypes? I'm a xenomorph myself and would like to know how to optimize this exercise for maximum six-pack abs.

@xxxxx8200

Six pack abs is a waste of time in the gym. You need to think about why you got into this in the first place. Just focus on getting colonists to the egg chamber and the rest will fall into place.

The sarcasm is strong with this one...

I'm from Canada, and we started doing this exercise back in 1959, so you taught us well, and we're thankful that it hasn't changed a lick since then! It makes us all have really big muscles, in all the right places, like, on the west coast, and the east coast, and even up north. So, thank you for inventing that! We're only sorry that you didn't invent it in Nineteen Fifty Fahve. (Like I said, I'm from Canada, I had to be sorry about somethin)

What exercise do I do to get my back that hairy

expecting this in starting strength 4th edition!!!

Wow!! best advice ever! Im not even going to scroll down to comments or watch more than 30 seconds to realize its an april fools joke becauae everything on the internet is true!!! Going to gym tomorrow to do 500 lb deadlifts but i changed my mind. Im going to do 500 lb upright rounded back shoulders and head forward rows! Thanks!

Oh thank you coach thats what i just planed to do......to my sholders doday. You are so inspiring

I'm just waiting for official Rippetoe merch, gotta get me that sweet "Trainer" sleeveless...

When you stumble on that video on April 6th and go "WTF did they lose their mind" before checking the posting date 😂💪🏻

Mark Rippetoe, Man of action! Man of few words!

Very informative video. Thanks guys! Been performing these for around a month now and I've never felt a pump in my calfs like it before. The only way is up. What's ur opinion in performing tricep kick backs? I know they're banned due to their anabolic steroid effects. But they seem useful.

I'm impressed that no chins were busted or teeth knocked out in this demonstration of the most important movement in the gym

Man, looks like I’ll be adding these to my programming, and then letting my doctor know of an impending shoulder surgery 😂

I knew it was an April fool's joke before I even clicked on it.

This will now be implemented to the official crossfit programs.

I learned a lot thanks!

Tried these and got some great gains... In my injury downtime and my medical expenses 😆

I teared up the first few seconds, and couldn't catch my breath till the end. Plain fucking great video.

This is a very popular lift in my gym. Just watched some guys do 105 for three sets this morning... using only 10 lbs disks on the bar...

Game changer. This video clearly demonstrates the need for the upright row to be a SSC specialty certification.

Not only is it the most important exercise, it has been known to cure shoulder impingement, and is perfectly healthy for your rotator cuff.

The video made my day😂😂😂

What a shame, you forgot to mention the carryover to the olympic lifts...

I thought the most important exercises were leapfrog and grab-ass

I learn something every damn video. 2:23 maximum effort! Thanks Rip. I'll do this in exchange for the Power Cleans!! This is a pulling exercise right?

I could tell Mark was dying to break a smile in this video 🤣🤣🤣

Perfect form!

What magnificent arms this man has. Just astonishing.

So now I can skip all the squat/deadlift stuff I've been doing.

This was great for my groin! Major gains in my pinkie toes as well!

bro tanks for the tips

Hey rip, do u recommend straps and belt for heavy upright rows?

fantastic!

Can't wait to meet rip in person in June!

I'm getting real good at upright rows. I got so good I started doing them while hanging upside down. Not sure what to call them now....downright rows, upside down rows, downside up rows...dang I get a good pump in my pectridorsi.

The thumbnail was enough for me 😂🔥

The Chase > Labrador transformation bit is absolute class

I always thought Rip got strong from lifting heavy, his legit bodyhair was the reason all along though.

Loved it!

Lmao almost lost hope in humanity until I realized the date, it was suggested to me today 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Thank you Coath Ripp

I love this so much

Mark forgot to mention some key ques for this exercise namely he forgot to discuss the importance of back arching and the all important elbows up cue. Thankfully his assistant was practiced enough at this lift to show us proper technique.

Before you do the row. Make sure to do more weight that you can do with proper form and lift the weight off the ground only using your back and keep your shoulders rounded forward. Its helped me go to snap city!

Lmao I come back to this video every now and then. Teaching new people at work lately and it puts into perspective rips ability to break down minutiae of movements. I feel like 5 years ago I could have explained in detail every movement in my job but now I'm so removed from the basics that I've forgotten how to begin.

I tried this and my shoulders imploded.. Should i program more to reverse the damage?

Incredible

This was fantastic

This is awesome.

Yes!!! Finally some humor. Needed a good laugh

Rip you are the man!

Wondering the proper cue for the upright row seizure shown in final rep. Also is touching the bar to the nose necessary to count the rep or just in vicinity? Thanks and April Fools.

This is my favorite video on youtube!

All you man!

Upright rows, a man's exercise. I see Rip is a man of culture.

This may be the greatest Starting Strength video ever.

what exercise would I do next to repair all the back and shoulder damage done...

for sure doing these anytime I cross a gym ill do 14 sets of 4.

Good form

Of all the April fools videos I didn't expect one from you Rip! Well played

This video changed my life.

I usually throw these into my 'forearm day'...

Can you elaborate? Why’s it the best? and how to implement it into a typical SBD program?

About to hit a pull session soon. Will do these. Fuck those pull-ups and deadlifts.

How long can I do an NLP with the upright row?

Isn't it the dumbbell curl, which is the most important exercise in the gym? 5Lb for 25X5 should be fine for the beginners.

One technique problem is he didnt throw the bar down hard when he's done. Also he didnt puke at the end. Glad to see he is posing between sets for full muscle activation.
