Back exercises

[witkowsd]

I seem to have most of my exercises down starting off this month using the 5x5 method but I can't seem to find the right exercises for back. Any suggestions?

deadlifts or barbell rows are my personal favorite. Some prefer weight chins though

Deadlifts, for me, will always be the king of back exercises.

Other than that, I enjoy chins, bb rows, and seated rows.

weighted pull-ups are no1. Check out Tbar row

Pull ups are King. No other exercise develops your back as well.

Deadlifts and bent over rows are #2 and #3.

Let me qualify this, though. Just because pullups are #1 does not mean they are superior to deadlifts. Deadlifts work their own magic... and you can't get the result from any other exercise.

Hence, a great back routine is based on deadlifts and the different forms of pullups.
