I'm looking for a little more width in my lats. I've been doing pull ups and behind the neck pull downs but not a lot of progress.

I do rows and have been very happy with the results so far in thickness. I would like some width to go along with that.

Thanks for your help.

have the bar up like your going to pull it behind your head ,but grip it the other way knuckles facing away from you and pull straight down they are the best for wings. and if u have cables grab them and spin around with them in your hands and pull that will rip up your back if u dont understand just reply on here ill check in

try straight arm pull downs on a high cable...keep your arms shoulder width and your arms straight, contract at the bottom, those are good for width in the lower lat area

Close griop cable rows slowly are a good way to beef them up. and stretch as hard as you possibly can after at least 4 sets of wide grip pull-ups

Bro, start your back workout with 10 sets of wide grip pullups doing 10 reps per set, have a spotter too, because they get hard. Then go to rows of some kind, then to bent over rows, then do deads, ALWAYS DO DEADS

There are a thousand ways you can build you back. The best exerc. for your wings are
WIDEGRIP CHINS
AND ROWS

Bro,

My back is big. It takes pulldowns, pullups, and rows.

But I have to emphasize FORM - try doing these exercises slower and with a lighter weight. Back exercises are often done too heavy with too much other muscle involvement.

Do it right and you'll grow.

Here's my back workout, it's much like sustheads but I don't really count set too much, I do lots, but keeping things heavy and intense.

1. Chins, at least 3-4 set to failure on my
last 2 sets.

2. High cables with narrow grip D handles.
These give a really good stretch to bring
your lats right out.

3. For a really intense workout try doing
'burns' at the end of your reps.

After this workout you should be able to fly home from the gym with your new wings.
I left out stuff like row's etc. as you said you were happy with your back thinkness. Of course single arm rows done properly will do wonders for both thinkness and width.
Now so as not to up set the guys as regards getting off the subject of AS, here goes.
"steroids"!!!!!!....
ok guys, cheerio..
