Barbell Rows vs. Pendlay Rows. vs. Dumbbell Rows vs. Weighted Pull-ups.
Which is the back exercise I should focus on progressing the most?
I'm doing all except Pendlay rows at the moment.

Weighted pullups.
Pull/chinup
Deadlift
Whatever row you like best, it doesn't really matter
pendley rows are a retarded meme like standing overhead pressing

go away cheater
pullups are not compareable to rows
you need both rows and pullups

Hello /fraud/
Are classic barbell rows (pic related) a meme exercise too?
Or can I continue doing them
>>35234851
I know
I'm doing an Upper-lower split and always start my upper body days with heavy bench or OHP and then either rows or pull-ups and I want to know if I should rather do heva weighted pull-ups 2 times and heavy barbell rows 1 time per week or the other way around.

Have chronically hurt wrists. Which row should I pick?

dumbbell. barbell is mostly the cause of wrist pain.
I don't remember why anymore but back when I looked it up I chose bend over barbell rows vs pendlay rows

Similar issue here, my joints are clicky af and even rowing 1pl8 makes me feel like my fists are about to pop off. i think I'm switching to DB rows.
I don't like rows. They hurt my back.
I guess you mean strength progression. In this case do pull/chins and deadlifts as core exercises. Rows are good as assistence, specially high volume dumbbell rows, but you need a good reason to do them like every other assistence (weak spots, shoulder health, rehab). Even if you want to get some mass, Deads and Chins variations should be enough.
For bodybuilding I don't have much experience, but I think you should do at least three kinds of row in your push/back days. It depends of how much volume and how is your recovering.

I retract that statement, I'm a lazy cheating faget.
Pull ups and inverted rows
>doing weighted rows
lol just lol

If your goal is progress then I would do the most mechanically consistent (read: hard to cheat) movement which is Pendlay. Drop everything else and do cleans faggot.
>bent-over barbell rows
I do these
it will put stress on your lower back and core to keep it stable
so it will train your core, just like the squat does
you may need to practice with the bar to get the form down
but once you get it down, and your core is solid
you will feel that wonderful burn in the lats and middle back (and biceps)
