Title: Barbell Rows

No fucking around
I do slower reps than in the video but you gotta love Tom Platz.

Do them facing the back of an incline bench, you can change the angles and hit the back way better than standing.

I wonder if a cambered bar would work for that?

I don't remember ever trying the cambered bar but like Donny said, it's great for db's as well. Might as well try the cambered bar, see how it feels.

For a moment there, I thought he was trying to do upright rows with way too heavy of a weight and it was causing him to bend over.

yes .. ;D
Yate´s rows are great if used properly & i personally use an EZ Bar for a supinated grip which i just find better for me.
I love all kinds of rows for back & i believe they build Thickness & width
