I train alone at Fitness First Wisma Consplant.
The 'guided barbell' thing is called Smith Machine.
To do deadlifts I just set the bar on the floor and lift. (The barbell from the squat rack, not smith machine).
Never done Pendlay Rows before though.

uh you don't need a spotter for either of those lifts and u can't use a smith to deadlift.

For deadlift I just put it on the rail (Squat rack), heave it off and do my deadlifts (This is how the trainer told me to do). If too heavy I just drop on the floor. Pendlay Rows no need spotters but use mirror to check your form.
Hi there, thanks for the reply. The machine i was using is squat rack. so i guess i will do deadlifts and pendlays there. funny thing is ...it produces a eerrie screeching voice when i did deadlifts... and ppl were like looking like as though i was alien....
maybe next time i need to oil it ..
thanks
