Answer the question!

to get a wide back/ big back only 3 movements are necessary.

1. Pendlay rows 90deg to the ground (heavy)

2. Heavy dadlift

3. weighted chin up's

The rows when done properly will add a lot of size to your back.

Pretty much. No fancy machines, no crazy routines, no secrets.

Forgot to mention low body fat = smaller waist line

which makes the back look even bigger.

Pendalys are underhand grip right? I do over hand barbell rows. Did 4 reps at 335 last night. Is there a difference in developing lats from underhand vs overhand? Seems to me that underhand puts more work in my bicep than overhand.

TIA

It really doesn't matter, now you're nitpicking with the small stuff. Do what you feel comfortable with, I personally prefer overhand.

335 is a lot of weight, how strict is your form?

pretty strict - close to 90 degrees but maybe not full 90 degrees. My form is very clean up to 275 but at 315 if breaks down a bit at the 4 and 5 rep. I tried 335 to see if I could do it. 2 reps were very good, 3 was a little jerky, 4 was def jerky. I'm no monster but I work hard.

Not nit picking... just wanted to understand the term pendlay row. I just call them bent over rows. Thanks for quick response.

I have the trainer, the 1, and the 2. I used to be able to close the number 2 a few times with my right hand, but only once without a little help with my left. I also have a loading pin, a pinch grip block, and a heavy hammer leverage bar. I used to mess with this stuff a few time a week, but after a while a developed some forearm/elbow pain from all the pinching and the leverage work. Now I just occasionally do static BB holds and hex DB holds. I don't do anymore crushing
