5 Dumbbell Back Exercises To Build A Strong And Muscular Back

#4 Upright Row

The Upright Row is one of the simpler dumbbell exercises that is extremely effective in strengthening your upper back and shoulders while also enhancing your triceps. So, you might want to get down to practising sooner rather than later.

Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and let the dumbbells hang in front of your body with your elbows slightly bent and palms facing you.

Step 2: Pull your shoulder blades down and back while flexing your elbows, and pull the dumbbells up towards your chin until they cross your lower chest.

Step 3: Bring the dumbbells up to shoulder height and hold that position briefly before reverting to your original stance.

Important Tip: Begin with 10 reps.
