Back mass

[MilburnCreek]

OK, stupid question time: what is the "t-bar" move you guys keep referring to? I just started hitting my back harder than i used to with wide-grip pulldowns, bent over and up right barbells , shrugs, deadlifts, and wide-grip pull-ups....but "t-bars???"

Stick a bar in a corner somewhere. Load the other end and grab a seated row attatchment. Straddle the bar just behind the plates and slide the attatchment up the bar till it hits the 2" part and start rowing. Some gyms have a set up for this. There are also machines you rest your chest against. Many dont use those since it a good way to pass yourself out!

Thought i would add this thread

Did the suitcase row but did not have johns attatchment so i took a band sleeve and attatched a single handle to it. Talk about a pump! New staple in my back routine.

I actually consider chest supported T-bar rows and corner rows (or landmine rows) two separate exercises.

The chest supported rows are great if you have trouble/pain in your lower back or already have a lot of exercises that are taxing on your lower back.

The angle of the pull is usually a little different as well. When you chest is supported generally the path of the lever goes right through you chest almost like the reverse action of a bench press. Whereas the corner rows seem to lend themselves to more angled/vertical motion and the path of the movement tends to cross lower on your torso than chest supported rows. Aside from being a great back thickness exercise, corner rows really put a lot of stress on the traps as well.

For a change of the tbar that's on a stand I'll load plates on the end and stand sideways in front, and do one arm tbar by gripping end of bar
Take pressure off lower back. Killer

Nothing stupid to ask milburn .heck I learn every day I hope.
