The BEST Back Exercise

[Lonely]

The T Bar Row MOGS when it comes to back development

It gives an insane stretch on your upper back and contributes a SHITTON to width and thickness.

Also, the intervention of the V Bar Handle allows for an even better stretch for some reason. The angle you're pulling from allows your back muscles to do more work tbh.

Also, you can get a super good range of motion if you use 10kg/ 25lbs plates. Even more than a standard barbell row.

Since the bar is thrust in a corner, you're eliminating a lot of momentum at play that's present when doing a standard row. It's like you're compensating for gravity automatically.

If you want something purely for back
hypertrophy with ZERO lower back involvement and grip with an easy setup try the Chest Supported T Bar Row. Literally the best back exercise on the planet IMO but it's a machine and not necessarily present in every gym.

I only do four compound exercises and this is one of them, but I do them with a hex bar and use the high handle.

you can also do one armed t-bar rows supplementary to it which allows you to get even more stretch (because your chest won't be in the way)

I like cable rows

4 compound movements for the whole body?

only things I've ever done are floor press, overhead press, t-bar rows and deadlifts.

only two accessories, lateral raises and hammer curls, this is what my entire physique was build on.

Why not add in Chin Ups?

Impressive then, no forearm or calf training tho?

I might have to change it up a little soon once I start bulking again because gaining any additional size/strength at this point is hard.

never needed it, 13 inch forearms, calves are close to 17 inch cold.

They were always like that or they just grew with training other body parts?

He probably has good genetics for those areas

If your gym doesn't have this it's over for your back gains bruv

What do you think about this upper back machine?

You can get by without this TBH but if you don't have a lat pulldown machine it's over

my forum name is my profession, I've been doing a labor job for over a decade, hence why these specific muscles were already developed, but they got bigger from training too, t-bar rows hit your forearms to an extent, so do deadlifts.

I don't have an amazing physique. Just an above average one.

Psychical labor once again mogs all

 

[Lonely]

Psychical labor once again mogs all

Not for hypertrophy

 

[Orc]

I only do it because I enjoy it and the government thinks I'm retarded and subsidizes the fuck out of any labor I do, which I then receive back through a third party construction, but I won't go into details about that.

The T Bar Row MOGS when it comes to back development

View attachment 1863661
It gives an insane stretch on your upper back and contributes a SHITTON to width and thickness.

Also, the intervention of the V Bar Handle allows for an even better stretch for some reason. The angle you're pulling from allows your back muscles to do more work tbh.

Also, you can get a super good range of motion if you use 10kg/ 25lbs plates. Even more than a standard barbell row.

Since the bar is thrust in a corner, you're eliminating a lot of momentum at play that's present when doing a standard row. It's like you're compensating for gravity automatically.

If you want something purely for back
hypertrophy with ZERO lower back involvement and grip with an easy setup try the Chest Supported T Bar Row. Literally the best back exercise on the planet IMO but it's a machine and not necessarily present in every gym.

true but pullups mogg, btw there isnt a best exercise obviously everyones biomechanics are different.
just create and use and exercise that is optimal for you.

How do you rate this machine? (I use the top handles);
