Barbell T-Bar Row Tips

  1. Start with an appropriate weight that challenges your upper back muscles but allows for proper form.
  2. Position your feet shoulder-width apart, with knees slightly bent, and maintain a stable stance throughout the exercise.
  3. Keep your back straight and core engaged to avoid unnecessary strain and promote a strong posture.
  4. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width, ensuring a secure and comfortable hold.
  5. Initiate the movement by pulling the barbell towards your chest, focusing on squeezing your shoulder blades together.
  6. As you pull, maintain a controlled and smooth motion, avoiding any jerking or swinging of the weight.
  7. At the top of the movement, pause briefly and contract your upper back muscles before slowly lowering the barbell to the starting position.
