I Need You Guys To Give Me Some Good Lat Workouts!!!!!!!

I read an article that said that you want to put your biceps in an advantageous position when you do rowing or pulling exercises. This means an underhand grip. This will lead to you being able to handle heavier weights, which means wide lats for you!

(I should change my handle to emphasize my weaknesses instead; maybe that will get me motivated)
 
Heres the back workout that worked best for me, seems to work really well for me but I know everyone is different. I usually use reps of 6-8 by the way.

wide-grip front chins (5 SETS to failure)
bent-over reverse-grip ez-bar rows (3 SETS)
close-grip v-bar pulldowns (3 SETS)
seated v-bar cable rows (3 SETS)
crossbench dumbbell pullovers (3 SETS) - bent-arm really focused on the stretch at the bottom of the movement

Good luck bro! :D:D
 
weighted chins make my lats grow the best but:

bent-over row
dumbell row
close grip pulldowns
straight arm pulldown
 
Too much volume gents.

Do you want a back routine or just a lattimus dorsi workout?

Vertical rows use more lats.

Horizontal rows use more 'middle back' i.e. rhomboids, traps etc...

Chose one of each.

My personal preference is DB rows and [as youngnhuegguns said] chins with palms facing me - putting my biceps in strongest position. This also means i need to do less direct bicep curling so i'm out of the gym quicker and eating, resting and growing quicker.
