Meadows row

Etymology
Spread from the early 2010s after United States bodybuilder John Meadows, who passed away in 2021.

In a T Nation article from the 1st of November 2010 he himself reports breakthroughs in his back-traning in 2004 and then proceeds to describe this particular exercise (on which videos were later added), noting that he has “never seen anybody else doing them” though it would be probable that somebody else did them before.

Noun

 * 1)  A unilateral row variation performed with a staggered stance and inclined back in which the hand opposed and perpendicular to the fronter foot raises and lowers the end of a barbell (grabbed with a lifting strap or other hand wrapper to counteract the calliferous effect of the lacking knurl).
