Re: Back width

u hav to do both rowin and chins.. personally chins.. with different hand angles /spacing

my back thickness has always been good.. but chins added a whole new angle..

secret is never do the same exercises evry week , stress the lats from chins differently.


god bless.

Re: Back width

I have found that under hand rows have really started to bring my back up recently. I could never really find that muscle mind connection with chins!

Re: Back width

seated wide grip rows are certainly givin my back a good kickin at the mo,but its always been pulldowns and barbell rows for me ,but not to wide a grip as it hammers my rotators,plus bi's come into play too much.

Re: Back width

I also like seated wide grip rows..But heavy (strick form )one arm bent over DB rowsares also good, and Sh!t I also like T-Bar, maybe some stiff arm cable pull downs, of course you can't forget Chins, Duh.

Re: Back width

Wide grup lat pull downs, steady and controlled. Low cable row with close grip, very heavy. Bent over barbell rows, Yates style.
