What's best?
TrapBar - more balanced not as much strain on top of back, feels more natural and can lift heavier
Barbell - Used by most bodybuilders, had been proven to get mass on your back! feels a bit awkward as the bar touches the shins at times and awkward bent over position on the bar.
Which one is best? I want to get as much mass on my back as i can.
Advice would be much appreciated

Well doing the barbell deadlift is more likely to gain me more mass on my back, but i just feel that doing the trapbar deadlift puts less strain on the back but still get gains. I dont really want to mess my back up at my age.
My back workout consists of
Wide grip pull ups
Deadlift
Cable (straight back) seated row
bent over row ( free weights )
Good?
