Basically my front and medial delt has come on at a decent rate, all be it quite slow in comparison with my chest and arms etc, but for the rear delt there isn't too much going on their and it's lacking. So whats the best exercises to add into my routine to help build them up? don't mind if they are with cables/barbells or dumbells and reps and sets whatever is fine. Cheers.

personally, for rear delts i love reverse flyes. Don't use handles on the high pulley cable machine, just grasp the cables themselves and do reverse flyes. go heavy enough to really fatigue. You can also do bent-over lateral raises, they're great.

Reverse flies or bent over rows

Lying rear delt rows feel good too.
