BARBELL ROWS
Muscles Worked:
The primary muscles worked during barbell rows are the lats (Back). Secondarily are the biceps, forearms, shoulders, and lower back.
Alternate Name:
Bent over rows
Equipment Needed:
Olympic bar, You can perform barbell rows standing on a platform or flat barbell bench press
Execution:
If you are performing barbell rows off a platform, stand with your feet about shoulder width apart. If you are doing them standing on a flat bench, make sure that your feet are positioned firmly on the bench before you start the exercise.
Grip the bar slightly less than shoulder width with an overhand grip. Lift the bar off the rack and bend over so your back is parallel to the floor. Let your arms extend, fully stretching your lats.
With an explosive motion lift the bar to the bottom of your rib cage. Keep your elbows close to your body as you pull the bar up and be sure to contract your back as the bar touches your body.
With control, lower the bar back to its original position. Your arms should be extended giving your lats a full stretch.
When you have completed your reps place the bar back on the rack.
Form:
Keep your back arched throughout the exercise. Don't round your lower back.
Don't be so strict with your form that you limit the amount of weight you can use. Allow your body to move naturally as you perform your reps. It is OK to let your back rise up a little as you complete the contraction. If you try to keep your back perfectly straight throughout the movement you will limit the amount of overload you can use.
Range of Motion:
It is very important that you do not limit your range of motion for the use of a heavier weight. Be sure to fully stretch and contract your lats each repetition.
Comments:
I think barbell rows are one of the best exercises for back development. It is a basic compound movement that allows you to handle a lot of weight through a full range of motion.
I prefer to perform them off of a platform because I feel my stance is more stable than standing on a bench.
Using wrist straps can be helpful while doing barbell rows because you can handle more weight without your grip fatiguing.

Minor muscle tear is actually how they get bigger. The ones described above sound like the injury variety.
Do you not mean latissimus dorsi? Ones behind your arm pit.
