Tbar Row Question
When you guys do tbar rows..do you put one hand in front of the other, or use one the close together handle you put under the bar? What grip do you use in other words??

I use the close, neutral-grip handle for the lat pulldown machine. Once you lock your torso into the proper angle, you can really move some massive weight with this grip. I like it better than supinated-grip bent-over rows (another excellent exercise).

will the bar stay there? Or will it shift around??

I always had trouble with the bar shifting around. I would have my workout partner place his foot over the end of the bar, to help hold it in place. It didn't work as well as I liked but it was better than nothing. Anyone have any better suggestions? Maybe place a plate on the opposite side of the barbell and see if it stays put?

oh I meant the V bar..like the handle Im holding..will it stay in place? I always have my friend stand on the other end..its not a problem until I go to 7 plates..then he has trouble keeping it down.

i use the tbar row machine, i feel it keeps my legs out of it and i can get a good stretch. and i use both the wide grip and the narrow grip on different sets. the only problem i have with this machine is , when i pull heavy its hard to breath, from my chest being sqached agaist the pad.

Mix it up.
I can not stress this enough. Use different grips and postures to hit the targeted muscle from as many angles as possible.

Example.
When i grab the weight...My toes are in line with the plate closest to me. This stance differs from some i've seen, where lifters are standing closer to the middle of the bar than the end. The farther from the plates...the further the reach...thus the further the elbow placement in regards to the torso...and the less weight can be pulled. Conversely, with the stance i use, due to the fact that everything is in line (i.e. my wrists; elbows; knees...and subsequently, the weight)...i can use more weight.
What i've illustrated doesn't state you're incorrect..rather it illustrates that elbow placement is a satellite factor...whereas feet placement is the core factor.
Glad to have you in this forum mang
