Would doing deadlifts, lat pulldowns, pull-ups, t bar rows, cable rows, and lat pullovers too much? I include biceps on back day and no traps/rear delts (push day). Measly reps!

How much is TOO MUCH for back?
"Look, I can't change the way I think
And I can't change the way I am
But if I offended you? Good
Cause I still don't give a ****"

theres no point in doing that many exercises. Just do 1 deadlift, 1 vertical pull, 1 horizontal pull, and then do it twice a week
The best years of your life are the ones in which you decide your problems are your own. You do not blame them on your mother, the ecology, or the president. You realize that you control your own destiny.

5 exercises should be the maximum for back tbqh.
Here's my selection (although if you are doing pure bodybuilding, I would swap out the Deadlifts for TBAR/DB Row)
#1. Deadlifts
#2. Weighted Chins
#3. Barbell Row
#4. Lat Pulldown
#5. Cable Row
Feels amazing, covers everything, and gives good results. IMO, you don't need 2 vertical pulls like I have, I just compete am looking to compete in physique and really need to over-emphasize the vertical pulls right now because I used to only row / do no verticals lmao.
Also keep in mind it is highly contingent on how many WORKING SETS you do per exercise. If you do 3-4 working sets to failure/1 rep short of failure per exercise, forget it.

i personally like a lot of volume for back. I think It is fine. However I do super set so then it is mainly 3-4 sets of back excercises
I dont do Pull overs thoughhttp://teamfd.firstdescents.org/2012/fd/tokenspullups/sewell/

That doesn't seem too bad at all. Your back can handle a lot.
2 vertical pulls
2 horizontal pulls

The sand at the core of our bones continues on
Hey I just met you. And this is crazy. But today is chest day. So spot me maybe?
Art thou prone to such insurmountable force upon thou biceps?
