As per a request today decided to post a great Back training routine to add width and definition to your back. This is the same way IFBB pro Al Auguste trains and its been working pretty well for me lately :
- Warm up - 3 sets of wide grip pullups (10 reps)
- Deadlifts - 3 sets (15, 10, 8 reps)
- Wide grip lat pulldowns- 4 sets (20, 15, 12, 10 reps)
- Barbell rows - 4 sets ( 20, 15, 10, 8 reps)
- Seated Cable rows - 4 sets ( 20, 15, 10 , 8 reps )
- Close grip pulldowns- 4 sets ( 15 reps ) - Same weight
- Wide grip pullups - 3 sets to fail
For each set use a weight that you nearly fail with on the final rep, and also ensure that you feel the squeeze in your back for all exercises- as it is easy to switch the focus to bis on most movements. DO NOT USE MOMENTUM TO PUSH HEAVIER WEIGHTS THAN YOU SHOULD - this is a common mistake with back training, as there is a misconception that you need to use huge weights for your back to grow.
