Beschrijving
T-Bar Row is a classic mass-building exercise targeting the entire back region. This movement intensely works the latissimus dorsi, rhomboids, middle trapezius, and rear deltoids. The fixed path of the T-Bar eliminates imbalance issues and allows you to lift heavier weights. One of the most effective exercises for increasing back thickness and developing upper body strength. It also works the core muscles as stabilizers. Suitable for both beginners and advanced athletes.

Belangrijke punten
- ✓Hinge at the hips to lean the torso forward 45 degrees, back should be straight and chest out
- ✓Keep knees slightly bent, distribute weight to the heels
- ✓Pull the handle toward the belly button area, keep elbows close to the body to target the lat muscles

Veelgemaakte fouten
- ✗Rounding the back - the most common mistake, causes serious lower back injuries
- ✗Lifting the torso while pulling - turns the movement into a shrug, reduces lat activation
- ✗Loading excessive weight - form completely deteriorates and injury risk multiplies
- ✗Opening elbows too wide - rear shoulder and trapezius engage, lat work decreases
- ✗Doing partial reps - optimal muscle development cannot be achieved without full range of motion
Ademhaling
Exhale forcefully while pulling the weight up, inhale deeply while lowering it down.
