Your Best Back Workout
The best back workout is all about getting you that V shape. Your back is a large muscle group and generally can handle the most stimulation of any of your upper body muscle groups.
Most back exercises in your best back workout will use a pulling motion. If you think about it is the opposite of your other upper body workouts, rows are the opposite motion as bench press and pull downs and are the opposite motion as overhead press. They are the Ying to the others Yang. Of course this is a very broad comparison, but I wanted to show the point of how important the back workout really is.
Here are the muscle groups in the back.


For our best back workout we will be using two main movements. They are Rows and Pull Downs (or Pull Ups). These exercises are essential in getting that V shape that you are looking for.
The bicep is used a lot on back day. For this reason I usually recommend doing the back workout with bicep workout. In fact, they work so well together usually there is very little bicep work that needs to be done after.
Deadlifts are an essential part of your back workout. They are the quintessential full body exercise. I generally recommend doing deadlifts on leg day along with squats. Their main focus is hamstrings and lower back, but they work all sorts of other muscles including upper back, forearms and quads.
