T-bar rows
I have the t-bar row attachment on my power rack. Like this:
I don't have a handle for my olympic bar. My question is, is it ok to just hold onto the bar for t-bar rows with my hands or do you think I should get a close grip cable attachment or something?"A child does not learn to squat from the top down -- in other words, he does not suddenly make a conscious decision one day to squat.

So many cries of inequality stem from one of group
of people doing little or nothing and then bitching
about another group that actually does something
to improve their lives.

Yeah I saw that. Looked kinda cheap to me. I would have to physically see it. I think it sells for 40$. Originally Posted by DOMS

You know you can brace your hand on the opposite knee and do them with one arm. When you do this you can replace each 45 plate with a 25. By doing this you can increase the range of motion at the highest point. At this new highest point you can hold the contraction much more effectively.
Personally I care enough about my joints to never lock me fingers together when lifting weights that are seriously effective for intermediate lifters or beyond.

Ooooh, I like hoglander's suggestion the best!
Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.

You could wrap a towel around the bar too and grab the ends.

I like to use a double D handle, or whatever it's called. However, you can just grab the bar.

Personally, I would buy this:
Solid Close Grip Lat Row Cable Attachment Bar H867F - eBay (item 250573695031 end time Mar-03-10 21:58:40 PST)
Buy it now for $25 dollars.

It really depends, yes you could just use ur hands but with an ext. you could use a wider grip, thus hitting a different area of ur back.
