RIG UP THIS EXERCISE FOR A THICKER BACK.

T- BA R ROW

Chinups and lat pulldowns
will make your lats wider, but
if you want a thick, densely-
muscled back, you need to do
rows. The T-bar row allows
you to use a neutral grip—palms
facing each other—which is
the biomechanically strongest
position to pull from. This
gives T-bars an advantage

over bentover rows, where

the palms are turned down.

Because you can use both

hands, you can load more

weight, and that gives the T-bar

an edge over dumbbell rows,

too. The only catch is that many

gyms don’t have a T-bar row

station. See sidebar for how

you can create your own.
