How did you get your back so BIG???

[g-dogg]

I am training for a show in August and have every intention of winning the show-I need to bring up my lower lats a bit-I've had trouble the last couple of months getting a really good pump in my back-please give me your best back workout-I appreciate it---g-dogg

 

[Juice Tiger]

Pullup's,Dl's, proper body positioning on every rep, go heavy. I went from zilch to back-man in 2 yrs.

[theaquabat1]

for me to get the lower lats I do underhand close grip pullups or pulldowns.

 

[g-dogg]

Jesus Christ-I know some of you have big backs

deadlift,pullups with weights,and pullups under hand grip,one arm pulldowns...underhand grip pulldown shoulder width grip or a little wider,underhand grip seated cable rows,one arm seated cable rows,dumbel rows,barbel rows under hand grip..

 

[Pat Mycroch]

Power cleans, deadlifts, and barbell rows. The ultimate mass builders.

Thanx guys-I trained back today and used a lot of underhand movements and went lighter than usual with very strict form-my back is soooooooooo fucking pumped-I appreciate everyone helping me---g-dogg

Heavy bent over rows Dorian style!

 

[Deepsquat]

Deadlifts and pulldowns 4 seconds down 2 second flex and 4 seconds up ...hurts like hell . Improved my back immensly. I only do 8-10 sets for back and 4-6 on deadlift day .
Remember when doing pulldowns don't lean back much , it will end up transfering the stress to your shoulders and inner back , on pull downs you are trying to work lats ,
I will start a thread for you to see the huge improvement my back went through in 6 months with this simple program

Ultra hit it on the head. The key word above is UNDERHAND or reverse grip. What's made the biggest difference with me is Smith Deadlifts, reverse grip barbell rows, and seated cabe rows using the rope attachment.

i find the best the for back width is wide grip pull ups....once u get to 12 reps easy, through on some weight on a chain belt.

 

[Willyumyum]

5 sets of deads
4 sets of weighted pullups
3 sets of tbar rows....

Beautiful thickness and width routine, it's been working like a charm for me..

YUM

Weighted pullups (or if can do only bodyweight): 3 X failure
Bent-Over D-Bell Rows or T-Bar Rows: 3 X failure
Throw in some rear delt stuff for burnout.
