The lying t-bar rows are good, but my gym only has the standing on the platform type t-bar. Bar in the corner > standing on platform tbar IMHO. Personal preference I guess.

The avantages? Would be the use of stabalyzing muscles..
easier on your back? Build up lower back muscles to handle it.
I remember when I first did T-Bar rows.. I was only able to load up 25LB plates on it. Anymore and the Plate would hit my chest and that would limit my rom. I don't think I set it up right.
I'm gonna do them tomorrow though for my back day. See how they go..
Does the bar smack your nut sack also? I seem to remember that one! And front bb shrugs... man.. I'm gonna have a day tomorrow!The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and hear all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds. ~Henry Rollins

I used to do this exercise with 6-7 plates. Good for biceps, but didn't get much back development for the weight I did.

i tried both and what's strange is that i use the same weight on both (one would thought that you would put less weight on regular t-bar rows)
i prefer regular t-bar rows though (i'm in a much more comfortable position)

The machine hurts my chest =( Why do you need to stick the bar in a corner?

but then again, we have both versions at my gym and it's fixed to the ground (no need to put the bar on a corner end)
also, the thing that you hold firmly with your hands on regular t-bar rows, well it's the same for the modified version, so i guess that's how i can use as much weight on both versions
