Close grip bench press also seems to activate my rear delts, though I might just be weird.

+ plenty of rowing motions on back day.

Check the database you'll find some good ones.

I've been doing this exercise a guy at the gym showed me.

Lie on an incline face down. Grab some dumbells and extend your arms in front of you- then "lift" your arms to equal with your sides and as far back as you can go.

You'll sort of look like this.

Yeah...and pullups really hammer my front delts

I agree.

Rowing motions. Deadlifts hit them to some extent too, for me, anyways. The first year or year and a half or so that I worked out, my rear delts were lagging WAY behind my front and medial ones, then when I started doing more heavy, intensive back stuff, my rear ones started to catch up.

Bent over flys isolate them directly.

[Darkazoid]

These are the ones that I use:

Bent over raises, barball rows (any kind of rowing for that matter) and cable pull down to the face with medium grip (face pulls):

Go down until you see the "Face pulls" video.

I do a dumbell "high elbow row". Just like a bent over traditional dumbell row but with my elbow higher. So instead of keeping my elbow around my hip area, my arms are perpendicular to my body. Arms are in the same position as when I bench press, only I'm pulling in the opposite direction. Make sure to actively retract your scapulae for max shoulder stabilization.

You just described the rear delt row.

Right....there are many different names for bodybuilding exercises. Which more accurately describes the motion? "Rear delt row" which could be low or high, or high elbow row, where the position of the arm is clear?

and by the way, I was trying to help. Why don't you contribute positively to the thread insead of being a negative idiot?

i find bending forward slightly during cable lat raises stimulates the rear delt to a great degree.

[gymfreak713]

well you can punk out and do some bent over laterals, or you can have someone check your rowing form and really row heavy and hard. I only do bent over laterals every fourth back workout or so.

if you're lucky enough then they'll grow fine just from doing back work..
otherwise theres a few isos you can do.. reverse cable flyes, bent over lateral raises (cables, dumbells, one arm, both arms, switch it all up)
