What's the difference between a one-arm dumbbell row and a kroc row? Everyone seems to be calling what I've called a dumbbell row since 1989 a "kroc" row. What gives?
 
Re: Kroc row?

"Kroc rows" are nothing but extremely heavy high rep rows. Over 20 reps. I think he currently uses homemade dumb bells over 200 lbs for over 20 reps at present. He claims this as the best bench assistance for back and is great for increasing lock out on deads

Re: Kroc row?

you use very heavy weight , cheat it up and controle it down , also the angle of the back is a bit higer than with regualr bent over one arm rows on a bench , this targets the lower lat a bit more than the upp part.

Basicaly like a bentover row but allowing you to use more weight becuase your supported by one hand
 
Re: Kroc row?

OK, thanks guys. The weight and rep scheme seem to make sense.

I thought it was odd that an exercise that has been around for decades - if not longer - was named after a dude a year younger than myself.
